On an afternoon shortly before the Mid-Autumn Festival, a bright sun shines over the blue sea and only a few Indian blankets remain in bloom on the roadside. Within the stone windbreaks, the peanuts are just now being picked, and by the time the festival has passed, Penghu will be a parched yellow expanse.
近中秋的午後，太陽烈烈照得海水藍藍，路邊的天人菊所剩無幾，咕咾石圍成的防風牆內，花生正在採收中，過了中秋，澎湖就是一片焦黃了。
