Fortunately, County Magistrate Xu did not inquire about the specific amount of rice harvested by each family.
"If the situation is true, I shall report all this rice here, and then I will purchase it," he said.
Chu Lin, standing by, suddenly remembered what he had said to his Third Brother before, and quickly added, "Lord Xu, you are too kind. If the yield is indeed high, we hope to keep some for seeding, and the rest can be offered to the imperial court."
Although Chu Yonghua did not know why Chu Lin would say this, upon reflection, he thought it was probably Chu Heng's idea and nodded in agreement, "Lord Xu, you need not be courteous. If it can help the imperial court, it would also be a blessing for our Chu family."
She had said it subconsciously, but when the words were out, she suddenly realized why Chu Lin had said it.
Yes, if it were offered to the imperial court, the Chu family would be recognized by the Emperor, and Chu Heng would surely be valued more in the future!
