Tea-painted mooncake
By VicentaLakin
WE'RE IN LOVE WITH TEA. OUR ICE-COVERED MOON CAKES ARE A BIG PART OF TEA. THIS MONTH'S CAKE WAS ALSO MADE A FEW DAYS AGO, LEAVING A FEW LEFT AND OTHERS PACKED. I'VE BEEN TRYING HARD FOR DAYS TO MAKE MOONCAKES, BUT A MAN'S POWER IS TOO THIN, HE'S ALWAYS GOT A CUP OF WATER, HE'S GOT A DOZEN, HE'S SHORT, AND I'M NOT SO STRONG ENOUGH TO MAKE TOO MANY POTS, THE FRYING POTS ARE SMALL, THE FINISHED PRODUCTS END UP WITH 500 -- 700 GRAMS -- IT TAKES AT LEAST ONE OR TWO HOURS TO MAKE PIES AND MAKE THEM GOOD, AND A PLATE OF CAKES WILL SOON BE OUT, SWEAT! IT'S NOT A GOOD THING TO MAKE MOONCAKES, OR TO GIVE AND NOT TO GIVE, OR NOT TO SAY THAT I'M TOO CHEAP TO GIVE, BUT THAT IT'S REALLY HARD TO GIVE THEM ALL, THAT SOME FRIENDS WHO HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT A SINGLE DAY IN A YEAR, COME TO THE QUEEN IN MID-AUTUMN AND ASK ME IF I HAVE A MOONCAKE, EITHER A FRIEND WHO'S FAR AWAY FROM ME OR A FELLOW FRIEND WHO ASKS ME TO SEND THEM THE MOON CAKES, AND WHO'S USUALLY LITTLE CONTACT. ASK ME HOW MANY MOONCAKES I CAN MAKE ALL NIGHT, CAN'T I? WHAT SHOULD I DO? I'M GOING TO TAKE THE KIDS AGAIN. I'M GOING TO MAKE MOONCAKES ALL OVER THE PLACE. DEAR FRIENDS, FORGIVE ME! I REALLY DON'T WANT TO GIVE IT TO YOU, BUT I'M REALLY EMBARRASSED. WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE IF YOU BUY READY-MADE PIES? THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT SENDING RELATIVES AND FRIENDS IS THAT THEY ARE MORE PRECIOUS. SO I'VE BEEN MAKING EVERY MONTH CAKE WITH MY HEART, AND I'D LIKE TO GIVE MY LOVE MOON CAKE TO EVERY RELATIVE I CHERISH, AND NOT TO BUY READY-MADE PIE, EVEN IF I WANT TO BUY IT, I'M A BRAND-PICKER, NOT A CHEAP ONE. MY PRINCIPLE IS TO EITHER GIVE IT OR GIVE IT AWAY。
