Josephine listened closely to the young lady, feeling terribly sorry. As trivial as it might seem, she knew it was a very bad situation. She let the young woman finish before she spoke in response. "I know not how to fix the irrigation myself, or else I would help by my own hand. But I will see to it that something is done, either fix your fields or support your farm and family until the fields can be remedied. But I promise it will not go unnoticed." Josephine gave her a smile, then glanced to Raoul. "You probably know not of how to fix this, but perhaps another in the castle may. It would be not great stress upon the kingdom's wealth, if I do this?" She didn't know anything about finances, and if she gave out too much money, she may cause the kingdom to fall to bankruptcy. However, even if the money could not be given out, there was plenty of other options to aid this poor woman and her suffering family.
