The commoners automatically made way for them, and a team of people arrived at the Jiang family's gate. The Ning family carriage was on the right side of the Jiang manor gate, and the procession to deliver the dowry was on the left.
The first wife looked at the long line and was stunned. Jiang Lingyun reminded her mother, "Mother, shouldn't we have someone come out to burn firecrackers to welcome the dowry?"
Logically speaking, the dowry should have been sent to her husband's house before the marriage, but Jun Peiyun's situation was unique and she was already well aware of Jinling's situation.
The first wife reacted and quickly ordered people to prepare the dowry.
Old Master Jiang and the others all rushed to the door when they heard the news. The master of the Jiang family had appeared, and the way the entire Jiang family welcomed their dowry was even more impressive than when the Ning family had entered the door.
Jiang Xianxue and Jiang Yanxue were both stunned. Didn't Jun Peiyun say that her uncle had already spent all of her money? How could there be so much dowry? How could there be so many boxes after boxes on the carriage?
The consul at the front of the dowry team saw that his family members were all present, so he took the list to Jun Peiyun and bowed. "Miss, according to your instructions, the dowry has been moved here. A total of 64 pieces of dowry have been brought over. Here is the list. Please have a look."
Jun Peiyun took the list and opened it, wanting to open her eyes wide. Heavens, the gold silk bed, the rosewood table, the rosewood dressing table, and the other furniture all had three boxes of gold and silver jewelry, not to mention the expensive cloths and items like that. Sixty-four of them were lifted, and there was not a single piece of clothing missing.
"Yes, miss." The consul took back the list.
At this moment, the first wife had already ordered people to prepare firecrackers. They were all waiting to burn firecrackers to welcome the dowry.
At this time, the first dowry of the Ning Family had already been moved to the door. The two of them clashed, and it was just one going in and one going out.
Master Ning had his men stop first. He walked up to Old Master Jiang with a darkened face and asked, "Old Master Jiang, what do you mean by this?"
Old Master Jiang still didn't know where Jun Peiyun had gotten all these dowry, and still couldn't react in time. With Master Ning behaving like this, Old Master Jiang naturally had to do it for the sake of his own reputation.
It was also because he heard the servant speak of the first wife's reaction that he didn't know what to say.
"Master Ning, this is the dowry for Pei Yun. I didn't expect her to welcome us in today. What a coincidence." He gently tossed the ball to Jun Peiyun.
Master Ning turned to look at Jun Peiyun. She smiled and said, "Ever since I've become the first wife of the Jiang family, I've ordered people to pack up my dowry and send it over to the Jiang family. Who knew that I would receive a letter this morning saying that it would be delivered today? I can't be at ease with all these dowry, so I might as well welcome them into the mansion today."
"You know full well that our Ning Family is here to move back to the palace today, but you can't just choose another day to bring the dowry back to the estate?"
Jun Peiyun laughed, "Sir, is what you said a joke? Why would I, Jun Peiyun, want to see your Ning family's day when I enter the mansion with my dowry? Furthermore, your Ning Family's marriage annulment was first, and the fault lies with you guys. According to logic, you should have let me, Jun Peiyun, live as long as I can. "
Master Ning was so angry that his face turned green. Ning Chenyu supported Master Ning and looked at Jun Peiyun, "Miss Jun, aren't you making yourself uncomfortable? Our Ning family has a total of 64 dowries, and every dowry is worth a lot."
Jiang Lingyun's face turned cold. "There's no Miss Jun here. Pei Yun is now my wife, and also the first wife of the Jiang family. Please speak your mind carefully, Young Master Ning. If you call her by that, aren't you still thinking about the marriage between you and my wife?" Since you've already reneged on your marriage, don't tell me you're still thinking of snatching back Peiyun? "
"What, the Ning Family has an engagement with Jun Peiyun, or Young Master Ning's?" The commoners were all shocked, and the focus of their discussion turned to Ning Chenyu and Jun Peiyun.
"From the looks of it, this Jun Peiyun shouldn't be some wild girl. Otherwise, why would she have an engagement with Young Master Ning?"
"That's not certain. Then why did the Ning family break the engagement? It must be that Jun Peiyun isn't worthy of Young Master Ning."
"The Ning Family actually destroyed two marriages in a row. They're really the Prime Minister's Estate. They're not afraid of people talking about their betrayal."
"The Ning family is powerful, so how could the Jiang family and Jun Peiyun dare to offend them? They broke the engagement as soon as they wanted to, but seeing how Jun Peiyun is going to get married, it won't be that simple."
"..."
Master Ning and Ning Chenyu looked at Jun Peiyun for a moment. Master Ning growled, "Jun Peiyun, you actually went back on your word. Did you say that you wouldn't tell others? You took the money, but you actually went back on your word?"
These words could only be heard by the Jiang family members and the Ning family members. The commoners outside could not hear them.
Jun Peiyun didn't want to either. It wasn't like she said that. It was obviously Jiang Lingyun who said that, okay? Was this Master Ning deaf?
Ning Chenyu also said, "Jun Peiyun, don't think that you can barge into our Ning family like that, I …"
Eldest Young Master Ning, since Pei Yun joined our Jiang family, she has become very popular in the Jiang family, and we have to thank Eldest Young Master Ning for letting us go. Speaking of which, her medical skills are brilliant, and her looks and talents are unquestionable, I, Jiang Lingyun, have been fortunate enough to have a wife like her in my three lifetimes. She also said that the Jiang family will be her family from now on.
As he spoke, Jiang Lingyun took out a silver note from his pocket and said, "When I spoke to Pei Yun that day, she tore it off in a fit of anger. However, I thought that even though the Ning family was going to take back the marriage certificate, my wife didn't lack this money, so I'll give it to you."
As he spoke, he handed the notes to Ning Chenyu, who didn't accept them and just stared at Jiang Lingyun.
Jiang Lingyun turned around and said to Jun Peiyun, "Pei Yun, it seems that young master Ning is not willing to accept my silver notes. Since the Ning family bought your marriage certificate for 10,000 taels of silver, you can return it now."
Jun Peiyun inwardly applauded Jiang Lingyun's domineering attitude ten thousand times. This time, it was the loudest. If she still didn't know what Jiang Lingyun was up to, then she would really be a fool.
"Young Master Ning, when I first went to the capital, the Ning Family refused to see me, so we gave up on the marriage contract. You should take back the ten thousand taels, as my husband said, if it weren't for your Ning Family, we wouldn't have gotten married, and today, my husband and I have been blessed by the Ning Family to be our matchmaker. I can't take the ten thousand taels, so please take it back to my mother, Second Madam Ning."
These words were really a slap to the face. Ning Chenyu's face was dark, and Jun Peiyun's smile really made his face turn hot.
"Jun Peiyun, don't make me sound good. Don't you know what Jiang Lingyun's condition is like? I'm afraid you won't be happy for more than a few days." Ning Chenyu's words were extremely vicious, and even the Jiang family was enraged.
"Young Master Ning, what do you mean by this? Are you cursing Lingyun?" Old Man Jiang's face darkened.
Jun Peiyun laughed, "Grandfather, outsiders have said so why should you care? Could it be that you don't believe in her medical skills and that your husband will be fine, when my father was an imperial physician in the palace, the nobles of the palace praised him, and now that father has passed all his medical skills on to Peiyun, she will definitely do her best to cure him. Peiyun is confident that her husband will definitely be an ordinary person in the future, healthy and healthy."
"Imperial Physician Jun? Jun Peiyun's father was actually the Imperial Physician Jun? "He's the imperial physician who was second to none in the palace before, looks like young master Jiang's illness can be cured."
"I don't know what the Ning family is thinking, but they actually missed out on such a good daughter-in-law."
"..."
After another round of discussion, Jun Peiyun saw that the fire was almost gone. She stuffed the silver notes into Ning Chenyu's hands and said to the first wife, "Granny, you can order the firecrackers to be burnt now."
The first wife came back to her senses and gave the order. She set the firecrackers on fire, and for a while, the Jiang family was filled with joy. Everyone was originally just watching the Jiang family become a joke, but now they were just watching the Ning family.
The first madame smiled at Master Ning. "Master, it's not good for you to tarry here either. Why don't we proceed together?"
Master Ning waved his sleeves and gritted his teeth. "Fine, we'll take the dowry as well."
The consuls on both sides read the dowry slips together. As they went in and out of the house, they thought that the Ning Family's dowry would be greater than that of Jun Peiyun's, and that she would need to open the box to check that of Jun Peiyun. At the same time, both sides opened the box, and Jun Peiyun's dowry was not any worse than that of the Ning Family. Her value seemed to be slightly higher than that of the Ning Family's, and Master Ning's face was darkening while the faces of the Jiang Family's were flushed red.
The Ning Family had finished carrying their dowry, and Jun Peiyun had just finished carrying her dowry. Since both sides had ended at the same time, Master Ning didn't have the same attitude as the Old Master Jiang. He directly got into the carriage and ordered them to return home.
Today's matter could be considered as having been spread around Jinling for quite some time. The gossip about Jun Peiyun had begun to boil. The wild lass, who was originally unknown in Jinling, had suddenly become a celebrity.
The Jiang family closed their doors and the first lady ordered people to move their dowry to the Bright Moon Pavilion. The old lady then said, "How can the Bright Moon Pavilion keep so many dowry? In addition, prepare a storage room for Pei Yun. In the next few days, change the furniture in the pavilion and give the key to the storage room to Pei Yun."
The First Lady nodded and asked Jun Peiyun, "Do you think this is appropriate?"
"She's all at the disposal of her grandmother and mother-in-law."
