"Really?"
"It's true! It's more real than gold!"
"Well...maybe I'm overthinking it. Go drink some warming soup." Fu Yunchen touched the teeth marks on her neck. "Come with me somewhere tonight."
Where to?
"You'll see when you get there."
"So mysterious."
Mu Run was taken to the kitchen by Fu Yunchen, who personally prepared a soup to dispel the cold for her.
She had never seen him in the kitchen before, but it was surprisingly harmonious, especially his movements when mixing ingredients, which were skillful and exuded an indescribable air of refined elegance.
Mu Run sat on a small stool, her hands supporting her chin, her voice sweeter than she had ever heard, "My lord, you look especially charming right now."
Fu Yunchen paused in his actions, then looked at her. "You like it?"
Mu Run did not deny it, "I'm afraid no woman could resist an adult at this moment. I am a woman, of course I like him too."
“You like men who are good at managing a household,” Fu Yunchen said with a smile.
Mu Run nodded. "Yes. Home isn't a place for one person; everyone should participate in every household matter. Men can not only earn money, but also manage household chores and educate children. Women can not only stay at home taking care of housework, children, and the elderly, but also go out and strive for success. This way, men can understand the hardships women face in managing the household and thus cherish their wives more. And wives will also understand the difficulties men face in socializing outside and develop a more independent and confident personality."
"Men are responsible for external affairs, and women are responsible for internal affairs. This is a rule left by our ancestors."
"Rules are meant to be broken."
"Hehe, but if we follow your logic, wouldn't things be completely chaotic inside and out?"
"How could that be? In that case, everyone can find their own value and what they want to do. Families will be more harmonious and perfect. Of course, everyone has the freedom to choose their own way of happiness, whether it is cultivating both inner and outer beauty, or something else. It's all up to them."
Women in this world have a far lower social status than men. For her to say such a thing is to go against all moral principles.
How could a woman possibly show her face in public? The higher a woman's status, the less likely she was to go out. Women like the Empress Dowager, Empress, and concubines in the palace rarely left their palace gates.
Those who were constantly going in and out were poor women, with extremely low social status.
Fu Yunchen was not the kind of person who was stubborn and inflexible. In the past, she had always done whatever she liked when making and selling tea, which is why she dared to tell him about it.
In fact, men like him are extremely rare in this world.
"And you? What kind of...way do you want? Or a husband?"
"What I want is what I just said: to be able to do what I want to do. And my husband respects my thoughts. After all... how should I put it, I might have a rebellious streak, and many of my ideas are different from those of this world."
"Oh? What if he did something that is unacceptable to this world?"
“I will respect everything about him, understand him, and protect him… Ah!” Mu Run suddenly exclaimed.
Fu Yunchen hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Qiaoyu told me that there were sweet potatoes buried in the embers of the stove in the kitchen. I just smelled the aroma and that's when I remembered." Murun immediately used a fire poker to stir the embers.
Fu Yunchen looked at Mu Run, who was diligently searching for sweet potatoes, with a playful expression in his eyes.
"One, two, three... six in total!" Mu Run pulled out all the sweet potatoes, each one plump and round, emitting a sweet and happy aroma.
