English Original
This is a story from Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio.
Lady Fan was gentle and beautiful. One day, accompanied by an attendant on an outing to the Water and Moon Monastery, she encountered the warm and equally beautiful Lady Feng. Finding an immediate affinity, Lady Fan invited Lady Feng to visit her home.
Back home, Lady Fan missed her new friend terribly and soon fell ill. On the Double Ninth Festival, while in her family garden, she saw Lady Feng looking over the wall. Overjoyed, she welcomed her in, and her illness was cured.
The following spring, during an outing, Lady Fan met Meng Anren, a handsome but impoverished young scholar. With Lady Feng's help, they became betrothed. Unfortunately, a rich local bully also desired Lady Fan and forced her parents to accept his marriage proposal.
On the eve of the wedding, Lady Fan hanged herself in despair. The heartbroken scholar rushed to her tomb, wailing uncontrollably. Suddenly, he heard Lady Feng's voice: "If you dig up the tomb, I can bring her back to life."
He did as instructed and carried Lady Fan's body home. With Lady Feng's magical medicine, Lady Fan revived. The two lovers finally married. Before departing, Lady Feng revealed her true identity—a fox fairy.
