What are some stories about the chinese mid autumn festival?

Answer: About Mid-Autumn Festival, there are many stories. Among them, “嫦娥奔月(Cháng É bēnyuè) Chang Er Flies to the Moon” is the most famous one. Here goes the legend: It is said that one year in ancient times, there appeared 10 suns in the sky, and every drop on the earth was melted away under such heat. As a result, the civilians couldn't make a living any more. There was a hero named 后羿(Hòu Yì) Hou Yi who was good at archery, so he shot down the extra 9 suns and was 尊敬(zūnjìng) admired by all the civilians in the country. In order to award him, Heavenly Queen Mother gave him a pouch filled with a pill of elixir of life, and he gave it to his wife 嫦娥(Cháng É) Chang Er who was very beautiful and kind-hearted. But all of this was seen by Peng Meng, who was very 奸诈(jiānzhà) treacherous and 心术不正(xīnshùbúzhèng) harbored evil intentions. He threatened Chang Er with a sword to get the elixir of life. Under this circumstance, Chang Er ate the elixir of life 当机立断(dāngjīlìduàn) without any hesitation and flew to the moon. After hearing the news that Chang Er flew to the moon and become a fairy, all of the civilians put the incense burners under the moon to ask for the kind lady's blessing. From then on, the custom of 赏月(shǎngyuè) appreciating the moon on the evening of the Mid-Autumn Festival is spreading gradually among people in the country. Now people also like to appreciate the moon and eat moon cakes in their backyard with their family members on Mid-Autumn Festival. Well, that’s the whole story.

Why do Chinese people eat moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival?

I am doing a project and I need to know why. Does anyone know?
Answer: During the Yuan dynasty (A.D.1280-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolian people. Leaders from the preceding Sung dynasty (A.D.960-1280) were unhappy to live under foreign rule. They decided to coordinate a rebellion without it being discovered. The leaders of the rebellion, knowing that the Moon Festival was drawing near, ordered the making of special cakes. Inside each moon cake was a message with the outline of the attack. Because it's a Han (the main clan before the Mongolian took over) cake, the Mongolian people are not interested. On the night of the Moon Festival, the rebels successfully attacked and overthrew the government. What followed was the establishment of the Ming dynasty (A.D. 1368-1644). Today, moon cakes are eaten to commemorate this legend.
