What are the different customs of Mid-Autumn Festival in different places?

Another year of Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, every time this time, outside the travelers want to go home and reunite with their parents. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day of family reunion, and in the old country, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a big meal.

Today's standard of living has improved, not compared to the hard times when I was a child, when I was young and uneducated, always looking forward to the festival to eat good food.

When I was a kid, my mom would instruct us one night in advance not to let go of her chickens, and then the next morning, she would catch one, and then kill the chicken, at this time, I would be on the side looking at my mom to operate, and would not feel cruel at all, because I would like to eat the chicken too much.

After my mom had dissected the chicken and cleaned it, she would put it in a pot and sauté it and put water in it and cook it into a soup, and the flavor would come out.

Dad went to buy meat and mooncakes, which at that time were five-kernel ones with orange peel and rock sugar, my favorite kind of mooncake. Because I bought fewer, my father said to save for the evening to enjoy the moon when eat, but I can not wait for that time, often early to eat, eat out of an icing sugar, just like a treasure hunt, if you eat it is so happy.

Often, when the meal is cooked, I eat a chicken leg has been unable to eat other delicious meal, often by my mother to read.

The kids would ask if you had bought any mooncakes yet. If the kids didn't buy any, they wouldn't feel happy at all.

When the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, there were already corn, we would fry some or cook some as snacks, and the fruit was just apples and oranges, which felt like New Year's Eve, we were very happy, but I heard my parents say that the children knew how happy they were at the festival, but they didn't know how hard they had to work.

Now grown up, but can no longer find the joy of childhood, but also can not eat that memory of the moon cake, even my mom also said that the moon cake now is not as good as before.
