My hometown is located in a small village in Liaoyang Lighthouse City, and when I was a child, the front and back of the house were always covered with large areas of "girls". Their vitality is very tenacious, no matter how the mother cuts the grass and removes the roots, it will not stop them from growing wildly in the next year.
There are three main types of "girls" in our vegetable garden:
1. Purple girl: green before it is ripe, not bitter or sweet. When ripe, it turns purple-red and slightly sweet. She was a little older than the foreign girl.
The purple girl after maturity
2. Bitter girl: before it matures, the whole body is green and the taste is bitter. Turns red when ripe, slightly sweet. The size is similar to that of the leather girl.

3. Foreign girls: before they are ripe, their whole body is green, not bitter or sweet. When ripe, it becomes yellow and very sweet. He is a circle smaller than the leather girl and the bitter girl.

Children are the smartest, and they can always turn everything around them into toys. In that era of material poverty, little girls were our happy partners.
Happy 1: Through the girl
Fold a small branch, the thinner the better. Pluck a girl (must be a girl when she is immature, a leather girl and a foreign girl. We generally don't have to be bitter girls, because it is too bitter), and then carefully insert the small branches into the girl's "mouth", and then use the other hand to continuously rub the girl's stomach, and squeeze the slurry out of the small mouth little by little. Repeat this step until all the slurry in the girl is squeezed out, leaving only a thin layer of the girl's skin.
Happy 2: Bite the girl
Put the hollowed out girl in her mouth, suck on her upper and lower lips, and the girl in her mouth immediately swelled. Then immediately push it between the two rows of teeth with his tongue, and the teeth bite up and down, and the girl will make a very special sound in an instant. In the eyes of adults, this sound may not be heard at all, but in the eyes of children, it is a harmonica, it is an instrument, and when it is blown, it will get great satisfaction in the heart.
Now that the purple girl has disappeared, the bitter girl can occasionally be seen in the wet market, and the foreign girl has become a delicious fruit (we basically did not eat it when we were young). As for the childhood game of penetrating the girl and biting the girl, it may have long disappeared!
