Then King Dong Ming taught the people the use of the Instruments.
Chinese Musical Instruments date from that time.
Then the people began to imitate King Dong Ming on the 15th day of the 8th Moon by making a feast with their friends and their relations every year. They expect that they can see the beautiful Moon Palace, and hear the music from out this Palace if they only listen.
Ai Lang then took the story teller's place and began the wonderful story of the
Winter Festival.
Our Country has a Festival three days before Christmas to commemorate a family meeting again.
The story is as follows:
Once there was a man who wished to go a long journey, so he went down to a harbor and found a boat, he paid the boat hire for it, and then he went down into the boat, just then a mighty tempest was on the sea; the boat was about to be broken and the men were very much afraid; and the sailor thinking to do something against the wind fell overboard and was drowned.
Then the lone man could not bear up against the wind so he let the boat drive. The day went by, on, on the boat sailed, but no land appeared in sight.
The lone man grew sadder and sadder, he neither ate or slept, but spent his time praying to his Gods.
