On the First Full Moon Festival, the girls invite Hà Nhân to their place, and they hold a party in a luxuriant garden full of flowers in the Camp. They are soon joint by beauties whose names are Vi, Lý, Mai, Dương, Kim, Thạch. The party lasts all night before everyone leaves in the morning. After a few months, Hà Nhân learns that his parents are arranging a marriage for him. Although he is hesitant, the girls convince him to comply. When he returns to his hometown, he tells  his parents to delay the marriage until he could make his mark, to which they agree. Hà Nhân comes back to the Western Camp and reunites with the duo, but his association with them causes him to neglect studying. As time passes and winter comes, Liễu and Đào one day tell Hà Nhân that they have contracted an incurable disease and will die that night before giving him their shoes as keepsakes. After a stormy night, Hà Nhân visits an elder in the neighborhood and tells him the story. The elder is surprised as the Western Camp has been abandoned for twenty years. He and Hà Nhân go to the place, which is now a barren garden. The old man points out that the beauties' names are just those of flowers and he had been bewitched by flowers' mirages. Shocked by the truth, Hà Nhân goes back and checks the shoes, which then turn into petals and fly away. He sets up an altar for the girls and reads a eulogy to them. The duo appears in his dream to express their gratitude before disappearing. Literary significance
