Modern women who devote themselves entirely to taking care of husband and children, and confine themselves to the kitchen, are simply foolish and will never find true happiness.

Since when has society associated the image of a woman with the term 'devoted' and believed that it brings happiness to any man who marries a 'devoted' wife? Houses with obedient and devoted daughters-in-law are surely praised and admired. But has anyone ever looked at things from the perspective of a 'devoted' woman to truly understand?
It's as simple as this: returning home from work, a woman must immediately tackle household chores, without a moment's rest, continuing to shoulder responsibilities for her husband and children. If the meal isn't delicious or the soup isn't tasty, is it because the wife isn't devoted or obedient? So, if one wants a delicious meal and a warm soup, the wife must tirelessly work, even to the point of exhaustion, day and night, to ensure a peaceful and warm home. There's no time left for self-care, hair unkempt, smelling of cooking oil and garlic, with hands and feet worn out from work... As a woman with such a disheveled appearance, does she truly see herself as happy when looking in the mirror?
Alternatively, husbands can go out drinking after meals, play soccer, watch the World Cup, drink beer, and discuss important matters. While children can focus on studying, attending friends' birthdays, and shopping for new clothes... Meanwhile, the woman at home continues to manage household affairs, finances, and chores, to the extent that a pen hastily replaces a hair tie on her head, her husband and children's clothes are neatly ironed while her own clothes remain wrinkled. As a woman who doesn't even bother to take care of herself, or doesn't have time to pay attention to herself, can she still be happy? So it's hard for 'devoted' women to be happy. Or rather, to reverse the issue, if women want to be happy, they shouldn't try too hard to be devoted.
Cooking a simple meal at home is sufficient, or wait for the husband to come home and cook together, or at most, hire a maid to help, sparing her from heavy tasks, allowing her spare time for nails and hair. The time when the husband goes out drinking is also the time for leisurely shopping for clothes, cosmetics, perfumes, and makeup, just like twenty-year-old unmarried girls. Then with a fragrant scent from the cosmetics, a face with makeup, a smiling mouth, and eyes free from any sorrow... Is that enough for happiness?
Not to mention, being beautiful as an unmarried girl is quite ordinary, but being beautiful as a married woman makes everyone marvel. They don't need to know whether behind that, she washes dishes, cleans the house, or tends to the garden, or if she has help from a maid. They just need to know that her husband is successful, she's still young and beautiful, and always radiant by her husband's side in every joyous occasion. People even praise the wife for taking good care of her husband, and the husband for teaching his wife well. Walking beside her husband with a radiant face makes the husband proud...
That's why, a devoted girl may only know sorrow, not happiness. The truly happy girls are the smart ones who use money to beautify themselves, to buy devotion from others to serve their families, and to make their husbands proud with what they achieve using their husbands' money.
