Chapter 1070 You are... a woman
Jiang Fenghua quickly said, "Miss Wan, you may have misunderstood. I was only ten years old at that time, how could I have made any agreement with you?"
Wan Qianzi clung to her, saying, "You don't remember, but I remember it clearly. I've always worn the purse you gave me; it's never left my side."
She took out a very old purse with a pair of exquisite mandarin ducks playing in the water embroidered on it. It was indeed her embroidery style, and she would never give such a thing to an outsider.
In those years, she always dressed as a man in public, even at the Feng family home. Very few people knew her true identity as a woman. How could she possibly give a mandarin duck purse, which she knew would cause misunderstandings, to another girl?
Jiang Fenghua looked at the purse with some embarrassment and said, "Did I give this to you?" She would never do such a thing.
Wan Qianzi nodded vigorously, "Yes, it was given to Zi'er by Brother Ruan." Actually, she stole it from him.
Jiang Fenghua had no recollection of this at all. Wan Qianzi then said, "How could Brother Ruan marry another woman? Qianzi thinks..."
"Husband, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you everywhere!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Bai Yuhan walking slowly in, dressed in an exquisite dress. She had quite an air about her, and with the help of servants, she walked directly to Jiang Fenghua's side.
Bai Yuhan pushed aside Wan Qianzi, took Jiang Fenghua's arm, and sweetly called out, "Husband."
Wan Qianzi and Wan Qianshan were both stunned upon hearing this. "Brother Ruan married the eldest daughter of the Bai family, but didn't Bai Yuhan enter the palace? When did she marry Brother Ruan?"
Jiang Fenghua felt even more embarrassed. Why was Bai Yuhan here too? Her calling her "husband" made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Bai Yuhan said, "Who said I entered the palace? It's all a rumor, and they've got it wrong. The Emperor has already ordered a clarification. During the time I was away from home, I naturally married my husband. It's just that my husband and I haven't come back because we went somewhere else. We went to the Southern Kingdom and visited many interesting places..."
"I'll definitely throw a big banquet for everyone another day, and Miss Wan, you absolutely must come and drink our wedding wine!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd began to jeer again. The Bai family was a prominent family, and everyone wanted to curry favor with them. "We also want to have a drink at Miss Bai's wedding."
Someone said, "I heard that Grandpa Bai has expanded his business to Shengjing (Shenyang). That's amazing!"
"Our Bai family has always had business in Shengjing. The Bai family is where it is today because everyone has been kind enough to give us food..."
As Bai Yuhan chatted with everyone with ease, Jiang Fenghua listened quietly, wondering if the fate of the Bai family had also been altered.
Her father was determined to cooperate with Xiao Shang to obtain the rebirth technique. Since Xiao Shang had no memory of her, did the Bai family have no connection with Xiao Shang anymore?
From Bai Yuhan's words, she knew that Bai Yuhan had used the Bai family's resources to help the people of Yuzhou. The Bai family was now a great philanthropist in Yuzhou, and she remembered everything that happened when they left the palace and went to the Southern Kingdom.
Wan Qianzi never expected that the person who would marry Young Master Ruan would be Bai Yuhan. She was only fifteen years old. With the wealth of the Wan family, it wouldn't be difficult for her to marry a man she liked. They were both business families, and the Bai family and the Wan family were mortal enemies. She was unwilling to accept that the person she liked had married a woman from the Bai family.
She said to Bai Yuhan, "Did you use some trick to get Brother Ruan to marry you?"
"Why would I resort to tricks? We like each other, we understand each other's feelings, and we want to grow old together forever." Bai Yuhan especially disliked Wan Qianzi, who always took advantage of being the youngest to steal other people's things.
Wan Qianzi, clutching a purse, confronted Jiang Fenghua, saying, "Brother Ruan clearly loves Zi'er. I want you to divorce her and marry Zi'er. This is our token of love; you promised to marry Zi'er."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Miss Wan, are you mistaken? I didn't say that." She just wanted to leave this place of trouble, and she blamed herself for saying that she was already married, and Bai Yuhan still insisted on getting closer to her.
Bai Yuhan glared at Wan Qianzi, then pulled Jiang Fenghua's hand and said to Wan Qianzi, "My husband has already said he doesn't like you, so don't be presumptuous and embarrass yourself."
"Bai Yuhan, who are you calling shameless? Don't think you've won just because you used tricks to marry Brother Ruan. I, Wan Qianzi, will not lose to you. Brother Ruan is mine."
Bai Yuhan said directly, "I've never seen a woman as eager to get married as you. He's already married, and you're still shamelessly clinging to him. Even if you're willing to cling, he doesn't want to marry you."
She took Jiang Fenghua's hand and said gently, "Husband, let's go. Don't talk to the madman, or you'll get mad too."
She even mocked Wan Qianzi, saying, "You'll be so angry, Wan Ziqianhong is an ugly monster."
Wan Qianzi angrily retorted, "Bai Yuhan, who are you calling an ugly monster?"
"Of course I'm cursing you, Wan Qianzi!"
"I'll beat you to death..." Wan Qianzi struck first, slapping Bai Yuhan across the face.
Bai Yuhan didn't notice and slapped Wan Qianzi across the face again.
So the two started fighting in public, and the servants on both sides were not to be outdone and sided with their masters.
The next moment, the scene became chaotic. Wan Qianzi and Bai Yuhan suddenly started fighting, and Wan Qianshan couldn't stop them. Fortunately, Wan Qianshan was a gentleman, and he didn't hit the woman but kept trying to break up the fight.
Bai Yuhan learned martial arts from Lin Yu for a few days, and her skills were not weak; she instantly defeated Wan Qianzi.
Wan Qianzi starts crying when she can't win.
Jiang Fenghua originally wanted to break up the fight, but when Ao Xue saw the fight break out, she took her to a safe place. She could only watch helplessly as the two girls inexplicably started fighting.
Ao Xue said, "It's clearly a private feud between the two families, let's not get involved."
The guards were only responsible for protecting the Empress's safety, so everyone stood by and watched over Jiang Fenghua.
Jiang Fenghua couldn't very well have her guards intervene, so she could only watch the two sides fight.
She wondered to herself: Are the Wan and Bai families sworn enemies?
Jiang Fenghua always referred to herself as Young Master Ruan in public, but no one knew her real surname or her full name, so everyone assumed that her surname was Ruan.
Soon, members of the Feng family also came to break up the fight. The person who came was Grandpa Feng, who was not young either. He was panting heavily as he pulled the people apart, and he ordered his guards to help him.
Once Bai Yuhan was pulled away, Wan Qianzi was already in a sorry state, and Bai Yuhan was no better off, her gorgeous clothes were torn to shreds.
Looking at Jiang Fenghua standing in the distance, who was completely unharmed, and then at Bai Yuhan's disheveled state, Wan Qianshan asked in confusion, "Brother Ruan, did you really marry Bai Yuhan?"
Jiang Fenghua was stumped by this question. She quickly laughed it off and went to help Bai Yuhan up, saying, "What kind of behavior is this? Get up quickly."
She didn't notice that Wan Qianzi suddenly broke through the crowd and ran onto her back.
When Wan Qianzi touched Jiang Fenghua's slightly heaving chest, she exclaimed in surprise, "You..." It's a woman.
Jiang Fenghua quickly released Bai Yuhan and covered Wan Qianzi's mouth, saying, "Miss Wan, don't cry. Today is a joyous occasion for the Feng family. It's not proper for you to be crying at their wedding banquet."
Her voice was authoritative and sharp, which startled Wan Qianzi so much that she immediately shut her mouth.
Jiang Fenghua then instructed Aoxue and Hongxiu to quickly take Wan Qianzi to the inner courtyard to wash and clean her up.
