Mid-autumn Day is for families to get together in China. People show their thanks for the year's harvest and pray for another year of good harvest. Moon cake is a traditional gift and food that people give each other during the festival. Mid-autumn Day was a harvest festival long time ago. The story goes as follows. Long time ago, there were 10 badly behaved suns in the sky. Houyi, a capable archer shot down nine of them to save the people and the earth. The hero Houyi went to the Kunlun Mountains and gained a pill from Xi Wangmu, the Goddess of the West Xi told him that he would never die after he took the pill. When he came back home, he gave it to Chang'e, his wife asking her to keep it safe. While Houyi was away, an evil follower tried to steal the pill. Chang'e put it into her mouth and immediately floated to the moon. Houyi cried for the loss of his wife. He laid a table in his yard and put out some of Chang'e's favorite foods.
