But when you come back, please bring me the food I like to eat at that time and also a bit of wind on a bit of paper." To the other, he said, "You can stay till the New Year, but when you come back, don't forget to bring the food I like to eat at that time and also a bit of fire inside a bit of paper."
The daughters-in-law thought and thought, but they could not find a way out. SO they sat down and began to cry. Just then there came a girl. This girl sometimes came to their home to make clothes. They told her what their father-in-law wanted and asked her what to do.
The girl laughed and said," It's very easy. One of you must come back at the Mid--autumn Festival. The food for that time is mooncakes . And a bit of wind on a bit of paper means a paper fan.
