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?”
