The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming again. Every time at this time, wanderers outside want to go home and reunite with their parents.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. In my hometown, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival means having a big meal.

Nowadays, the living standard has improved, but it is not as hard as the days when I was a child. At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I always looked forward to eating good food during the festival.

When I was a child, my mother would tell us one night in advance not to let her chickens go. The next morning, she would catch one and kill the chicken. At this time, I would watch my mother operate.

It doesn’t feel cruel at all, because I was craving chicken.

After my mother cuts the chicken and washes it, she will stir-fry the chicken in the pot and add water to make soup, and the aroma will come out.

Dad went to buy meat and moon cakes. The moon cakes at that time were made with five kernels, orange peel and rock sugar, which was my favorite kind of moon cake.

Because I didn’t buy much, my dad said I would save it for the night when I would enjoy the moon. But I couldn’t wait until that time, so I often started eating in advance, and I would find a rock candy when I ate it. It was like hunting for treasure. I would be so happy if I got it.

Often when the rice is ready, I will just eat a chicken drumstick and I can no longer eat other delicious meals. My mother often talks about it.

Children will also ask when they meet, has your family bought mooncakes?

If your friends don’t buy it, they will feel unhappy at all.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are already millet seeds. We will fry some or boil some as snacks. The fruits are apples and oranges. It feels like the Chinese New Year. We are very happy, but according to parents, children know how to celebrate the festival.

I am happy, but I don’t know the hard work.

Now that I have grown up, I can no longer find the happiness I had when I was a child, nor can I eat the mooncakes in my memory. Even my mother said that the mooncakes now are not as delicious as before.
