On the Mid-Autumn Festival of that year, my mother had set up a table for the moon worship in the courtyard, and my father had not yet returned. Mooncakes are the sacrifice for the Mid-Autumn Festival. His father, who went out to work part-time, told Xin'er that he would definitely arrive home during the Mid-Autumn Festival and would bring back two catties of mooncakes.
As far as I can remember, every Mid-Autumn Festival, I buy at most one catty of moon cakes at home, and I eat only a tiny bit in my mouth. It was completely dark, and my father hadn't returned yet.
The cry of crickets was higher than that for a while. Two and fireflies were flying in the yard without stopping, high and low, the soft moonlight showered down, the yard that was still dark just now, It lights up instantly. "Don't wait for your father, you have to worship the Moon God without moon cakes, and ask the Moon God to bless your father to come back safely." The anxious mother just now calmed up.
I still don't understand what's going on, so I obediently bowed down to the moon with my brothers and sisters.
I prayed and muttered: "Let my father come back soon. When I come back, I will have mooncakes to eat." The moon rose to the old height, just when I was about to fall asleep. came back. It turned out that his father met an old man who was lost on the road. He thought that he went home in a panic to reunite with his family. The old man was lost and couldn't return home. The family of the old man must be very anxious.
So, he sent the old man back home at the location described by the old man. Because the old man is hungry,The father also gave him a moon cake. "I knew that your father would come back safely." Mother smiled, "There is nothing wrong with mooncakes, as long as people come back." That night, each of us still got a tiny bit of mooncakes.
My brothers and sisters were upset when they saw me pouting. They all said they didn't want to eat them, so they gave me mooncakes.
