Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, it’s the day for family reunion. Early in the morning, my parents started cooking, and I was busily playing with my cousins. We hadn’t seen each other for a long time.
After the big dinner in the evening, the whole family went out for a walk. A full moon was hanging in the sky, bright and big. It let me think about the famous ancient verse which was written by Su Shi: “We wish each other a long life so as to share the beauty of this graceful moonlight, even though miles apart.” (The English edition of this verse was searched out by Google. )
Later, we came back home and ate mooncakes. In recent years, we have had varies choices of mooncakes. Traditional ones make you fill full, and ice-cream ones make you fill cool. Both of them are delicious!
According to the Chinese proverb, Tomorrow’s moon will rounder than today’s. I’m waiting for it.
