She looked left and right, bowed her head and sta to say”
That clearlyto say

“Aye”
Watching Chen Rong’s beautiful figure following behind Chen Shu, a young lad asked the Chen servant with interest: “Who is this young lady?”
“Ah Rong of the Chen house, daughter of a concubine-born descendant fro ain
Chen Shu led Chen Rong into the guest hall He walked to the host seat and regarded Chen Rong s took one step forward, knelt down before him and said, “I’ve coiven to any man as a concubine”
Chen Shu knitted his brow, staring at Chen Rong for a long while as he thought: She is only a lass who just arrived in Nan’yang How can she know the clan has decided on this recent arrangement?
Since she didn’t nose around, then did she take a guess? But she was only fifteen years old Not only did she know in advance Nan’yang would have a food shortage, but she also knew of the clan’s arrangeent girl
Chen Shu studied Chen Rong as he took slow sips of wine After placing the lid down, he lightly asked, “Did you gift rains for this?”
His words were very straightforward, brutally direct even
Chen Rong kept her head down and after some time, she replied in a low voice: “Aye”
She said ‘aye’ She actually told him ‘aye’!
This time, Chen Shu was at a loss for words He placed the cup down and regarded Chen Rong carefully, though there appeared to be no anger on his face
At this tie for she raised her head, pressed her lips together, and stubbornly said to Chen Shu, “Uncle, in your opinion, how is ence compared to the other Chen ladies?”

Chen Rong knocked her head on the ground in a ko and quiveringly said, “Uncle, both ths are properly placed, I can be of great advantage to the family If they are not properly placed, on the other hand…”
At this juncture, Chen Rong suddenly stopped
She slowly looked up
Her small face at this time was deathly blanched and her eyes were ether, on her stubborn face was also a ruthlessness “If the clan must send er say anything should er say anything shouldthee instantaneously rose in Chen Shu’s heart He glared at her and was about to snap when he saw tears pitifully rolling down her elegant face He then recalled that she had just given hient tihed at length “Ah Rong, you’re only a little girl How can you think to threaten the clan?”
