Li Chuntao kept saying she only knew a little, which made Yang Gang's wife feel she actually knew everything; she was just too humble.
Such a capable woman, yet not betrothed, what a pity!
Needlework is an essential skill for women, and in the countryside, being good at it brings pride and can lead to a good marriage.
If a family can let their daughter practice needlework, the household is likely to be doing well.
Because those who are struggling don't have the spare money to buy materials for their daughters to practice; they only know basic sewing.
Take her and her elder sister-in-law as examples—the family situation was pretty average but not poverty-stricken, so they learned some basics.
But in her third sister-in-law's eyes, those skills seemed exceptional, although in comparison with city girls, they were far behind.
In Xiaoqiu's family, there is not such good fortune; her clothes-making skills are high, but her embroidery is poor, as she has no practice.
