I let out a soft sigh before standing up, as there was no reason for me to remain outside any longer.
I turned and walked back into the house, where the air felt quieter, though the tension from earlier had not completely faded.
Master Fu was seated, while Madame Fu stood nearby, and the others were also present in the room.
I walked in and came to a stop before speaking.
"I will go to the farm later, and I will also stop by Madam Zhao's place to propose the marriage," I said.
The moment I finished speaking, the room fell silent, and everyone turned to look at me.
Madame Fu was the first to react, as her expression shifted slightly before she stood up at once.
She did not speak as she walked to a nearby cabinet, opened it, and took out a folded piece of paper before returning to me.
She handed it over, and I took it from her before lowering my gaze to look at it.
It was a list.
