Aunt Qiu took the 100 yuan. Then, she pointed out a bunch of 'Red Plums'. She even mentioned the 'Red Plums' from the neighboring village. She spoke in the local dialect and even brought the two strangers to the houses of the two 'Red Plums' in Shuikou Village.
After sending off the two strangers, Aunt Qiu even smiled and said, "Come often when you're free."
They spent almost half a day in the village but didn't gain anything. Instead, they spent 100 yuan. The facial expressions of the two people weren't as good as when they came.
They had spent money and seen Red Plums, but they weren't the Red Plum they were looking for.
The middle-aged woman didn't have any hope anymore. "We've already walked through three villages. Since we haven't found anything, we can only return to the capital city."
