In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 940: How was your drawing of lots?

"Your Majesty, I am willing to donate 100,000 taels of silver for military pay," said Su Yueyao.

"Approved." After saying this, the Queen looked at the ministers below.

The ministers understood immediately and immediately started donating money. After a while, they raised more than 300,000 taels. The empress looked at Su Yueyao and asked, "Yueyao, what is the estimated harvest of the high-yield crops you planted this year?"

"Your Majesty, it is not a problem to produce 1,000 kilograms per mu. I can give Your Majesty a batch of grain this year. The rest I will save for seeds and transport to the south for farming."

When the ministers in the court heard Su Yueyao's words, they couldn't believe it.

After hearing this, the Queen smiled and praised: "Yueyao has done a great job. When the autumn harvest comes, I will go to the farm to see it myself."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

After the court session ended, some ministers looked at Su Yueyao eagerly. They also wanted to have such high-yield crops and grow them!

Su Yueyao looked at the ministers and said with a smile: "My dear ministers, you want high-yield grain? I can give it to you, but I will carry out land reform next, which will involve some of your interests, but I can guarantee that you will not lose out. How about that?"

"Master Su, no matter what you do, the Huan family will always support you!" Master Huan said.

Afterwards, the Xun family, the Gongyang family, and the Cui family also immediately expressed their stance, and officials from Su Yueyao's lineage also stood up to support her. Only a small number of officials remained silent.

After looking at their reactions, Su Yueyao was generally disappointed and left the palace with Pu An and Gong Yang Ruoyu.

The three of them got on the carriage, and Urayasu said, "Is my wife finally going to carry out land reform?"

"Yes! I have already written a policy paper, which can be implemented directly in Tianshui Country. The only problem is who to send. Fengdu can also try it out slowly."

“Once this reform comes out, the aristocratic families in Fengdu will be turned upside down!” Pu An said with some concern.

After all, the land is now in the hands of various big families, and any move would affect their interests.

"My wife's Gongyang family will fully support us when the time comes." Gongyang Ruoyu said.

"Gong Yang, I proposed to change tenant farmers into farmers, divide the land by villages and distribute it to farmers, and promote tax reduction for reclaimed land. Your Gong Yang family has the greatest influence, right? Your manor has the most farmland."

"It's not bad! My wife only wants to give away half of the land from each farm, not to leave us all. Those farmers will also give us 30% of the food they grow for five years. Compared with high-yield crops, these are nothing."

"I hope other families with land think the same way!"

"Don't worry, my wife. No one dares to offend you now. Besides, there are not many noble families with farmland tenants. When my wife was planning to reform, Pei Cejun and Xing Cejun had already taken action. So there are obstacles, but they can be solved."

"We are not afraid of these things now. What we are most curious about now is how many children are in my wife's belly, and how many children they are from." Gongyang Ruoyu smiled and looked at Su Yueyao's belly.

"My wife, Gong Yang is right. I also want to know. My wife wants to promote land reform in Tianshui State. I will go to do it, but before I leave, let me see what Yun Sheng will vomit, and then I will leave."

"Pu'an, you'd better not watch it, otherwise when you come back, your wife will plan to give birth to a child for you, and you will be scared to death." Gongyang Ruoyu joked.

"Heh... You're not afraid, my wife. I'm older. Can there be fewer people around when I give birth to my child?"

"Puraan now admits that he is old. As he is old, he should protect us younger brothers, right? My wife, can you let me take your turn last? Aren't you going to give Yanxi a second child? I'll be with him."

"Don't look at me, I'm going to give birth to a baby. How about you draw lots? There are six or seven of you left. Let's have three of you at a time! Yan Xi and Yun Sheng are 100% going to have a second child."

"I wonder if anyone else except Your Highness wants to have both a son and a daughter. And there are too few boys in our family, only one. I hope there is a boy in my belly this time!" Su Yueyao said with emotion.

She found that she now enjoyed giving birth. She did not suffer any pain during the whole process. Her figure was not affected after giving birth and her skin was much better than before. She did not have to look at the baby. She could watch her husbands' scared expressions throughout the whole process, which was quite beautiful.

It was the month or so they were retching that was a bit of a pain for them.

"Master wife."

"Master wife."

Gongyang Ruoyu and Pu An understood the meaning of Su Yueyao's words and they both shouted at the same time.

"My dear wife, I am blessed to have a child, no matter it is a boy or a girl. I don't dare to ask for too much. My dear wife, you don't have to work too hard." Pu An said.

Su Yueyao looked at Pu An who looked a little flustered and said with a smile: "Pu An! Since you've married me, you can ask for something. Giving birth to a child is not tiring at all for me! How about giving you a second child when the time comes?"

Gong Yang Ruoyu just picked up the water cup and took a sip, and the next second he heard what Su Yueyao said to Pu An, and the water sprayed directly onto Pu An's face, who was stunned by Su Yueyao's words and stood still.

"Cough cough... cough cough cough... I'm sorry, I didn't mean it... cough cough..." Gong Yang Ruoyu coughed and took out a handkerchief to wipe Pu An's face.

Su Yueyao looked at the scene with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and smiled: "Gong Yang! Why are you so excited? You think my suggestion is too good, and you also want a second child!"

"Cough cough cough...don't...my dear wife...I..." Gong Yang Ruoyu's face turned red from coughing.

Pu An, who was sprayed with tea in his face, took the handkerchief from Gong Yang Ruoyu, wiped his face and said, "My wife Gong Yang is just excited. I support you to give him a second child!"

"Ahem... Urayasu you..."

"Look, my dear wife, the Gongyang family doesn't have a female heir in this generation. Gongyang married you for the sake of having a child. One of them will inherit the Gongyang family, and the other will stay with Gongyang. How wonderful!"

"Unlike me, who has no family and no bloodline, one child is enough." Pu An said to Su Yueyao with a smile.

"Pu An is right." Su Yueyao nodded in agreement.

Gongyang Ruoyu, who had recovered at this time, said: "My wife, Pu'an is so lonely and poor, without any family or bloodline, he should have more children, otherwise Pu'an will be completely extinct in the future!" Gongyang Ruoyu glared at Pu'an and said gritting his teeth.

Come on, let's hurt each other!

"And my wife, what I want to say is, you only gave birth to Tangtang for Concubine Cui, and she inherited the Cui family. Does Concubine Cui also need another child? Does Concubine Baili also need one? Concubine Lu's child also has the surname Lu, so does he also need to have one?" Gongyang Ruoyu said without taking a breath.

You must make sure to dissuade the wife from having a second child for them because of this, otherwise it will be dangerous.
