In the early Tang Dynasty, wars and disputes continued, and Li Jing went out to fight in order to pacify the war. The day he won was August 15. To celebrate his victory, someone presented Ethan with a cake. From then on, people will eat moon cakes on August 15th to congratulate them.

There is another saying about the custom of eating moon cakes. In the Yuan Dynasty, military advisers put secret information in cakes and spread it out, so they were able to capture most areas of the Yuan Dynasty. In order to reward everyone, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the moon cakes that delivered the news to be made into cakes, which were rewarded to the soldiers and celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival together. Since then, there has been the custom of eating moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The moral of moon cakes:

Moon cakes are round and look like the bright moon in the sky. The bright moon sends acacia, which represents the feelings of missing relatives. Eating moon cakes expresses my thoughts for my distant relatives.

For those who can't go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, eating moon cakes has become a spiritual sustenance. There are more and more styles and tastes of modern moon cakes. Even when people are busy, they will stop to look at the bright moon in the sky and eat moon cakes to miss their relatives and friends far away.
