It means: when you hold the rabbit's ears and hang it in the air, the male rabbit's two front feet often move, and the female rabbit's two eyes often squint, so it is easy to identify. Two rabbits, a male and a female, are running close to the ground. How can you tell which rabbit is the male rabbit and which is the female rabbit?

Original text:
When the mother-in-law heard that the daughter was coming, she went out to support the general; When the elder sister hears that her sister is coming, she takes care of the makeup; when the younger brother hears that his sister is coming, he sharpens his knife to the pigs and sheep. Open the door of my east pavilion and sit on my bed in the west pavilion. Take off my war robe and put on my old clothes. When the window is tidying up one's hair, the mirror is covered with yellow flowers. When I went out to see my friends, they were all frightened: they had been together for twelve years, and they didn't know Mulan was a girl. The male rabbit's feet are twitching, and the female rabbit's eyes are blurry. Two rabbits are walking next to each other. How can they tell whether I am male or female?
Translation:
When the parents heard that their daughter was back, they supported each other and went to meet her outside the city; when the elder sister heard that her sister was back, she dressed up in front of the door; when the younger brother heard that his sister was back, I came back and was busy sharpening my knife to kill pigs and sheep. Open the doors of my East Pavilion and West Pavilion, sit on my bed, take off the war robe I wore during the war, put on my old girl's clothes, comb my cloud-like hair in front of the window and mirror, and put flowers on my forehead. yellow. I went out to see my friends who were fighting together. They were surprised that they had been fighting together for so many years and they didn't even know Mulan was a woman.

Extended information:
Appreciation: "Mulan Poetry" is a rare masterpiece in the history of Chinese poetry. For the first time, the poem creates the image of an immortal heroine who joins the army for her father. She is both rich and powerful. Legendary, yet touching. Mulan is both a strange woman and an ordinary person, a heroine and a common girl, a vigorous warrior and a beautiful daughter. She is hard-working, kind-hearted, resolute and brave, honest and simple yet smart and lively. She loves her family and serves the country. She does not admire high-ranking officials and generous salaries but loves a peaceful life.
Mulan perfectly possesses heroic character and feminine characteristics. Her natural kindness, bravery, calmness, wit, and perseverance are the necessary connotations of Mulan's heroic character. Her infinite love and dedication to her parents and the motherland are the greatest source of spiritual strength for her heroic character.
