女戒:婦行 by 班昭

婦行第四:女有四行,一曰婦德,二曰婦言,三曰婦容,四曰婦功。
夫雲婦德,不必纔明絕異也;婦言,不必辯口利辭也;
婦容,不必顏色美麗也;婦功,不必工巧過人也.

There are four main types of women’s comportment: the first is wifely virtue; the second,
wifely speech; the third, wifely appearance; the fourthly, wifely work.
Wifely virtue doesn’t mean you have to be exceptionally talented and bright; wifely speech doesn’t mean you haveto be quick-minded and eloquent;
wifely appearance doesn’t mean you have to look beautiful and stunning; wifely work doesn’t mean you have to be more skillful than anyone else.
