“The first rule of the family,” Rex read aloud, “is to maintain a good reputation and self–respect. Women should know their place, follow their duties, avoid entertainment venues, and be home by 9 PM. They should also be well–versed in the classics and pursue noble hobbies, remaining pure and beautiful.

“The second rule,” he continued, “is to maintain the good virtues of thrift and simplicity. When traveling, one should adopt low–carbon and environmentally friendly methods while also staying active. Unless it’s for work, if the distance is within three miles, one should walk; for longer distances, one may apply for a car, but must explain the reason to elders. In cases of bad weather or pregnancy, exceptions may apply.”

Oriel listened with growing frustration. Her face, once full of pride and self–indulgence, quickly darkened.

She glanced at the PowerPoint slide, which emphasized the main points in various colors, and for a moment, she almost passed out from disbelief.

She was facing Rex, capturing his courteous and polite side from this angle.

Lorelei looked pleased and said, “I think this will definitely work out. Ms. Steel seems quite impressed with Rex. I believe you’ll soon have a daughter–in–law.”

Raelyn, who had been waiting for news about the match, opened the video and nodded approvingly.

It seemed Rex had matured quite a bit during his time away.

While the two women were imagining the ideal picture of young love blossoming, the atmosphere between Rex and Oriel was far from pleasant.
