What is this story about?刘娜: Chang’e was the wife of Hou Yi. After Hou Yi shot down nine suns, the Jade Emperor rewarded him with a pill of immortality.小潘: A pill of immortality? Is that the kind of medicine that lets you live forever if you take it?刘娜: Yes. One day, when Hou Yi wasn’t home, a bad person tried to steal the pill. Afraid it would be stolen, Chang’e swallowed it herself.小潘: So where did she end up flying to?刘娜: She flew up to the sky, reached the Moon Palace, and became the moon goddess. From then on, she and Hou Yi were separated by heaven and earth, never to meet again.小潘: That’s so sad! So when people look at the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, do they think of Chang’e’s story?刘娜: Yes. The moon is round, and while admiring it, people wish for family reunion and also tell Chang’e’s story.
