### [c8.164](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.chandra-1973.c8.164)

Like a good housewife she used all the means at her command to economize. She collected the old and tattered clothes of the hero. She dyed them and distributed them among the servants. She also brewed wine, supervised its use and sale. She honoured the \*nayaka's\* friends, showed reverence to his parents and relatives, talked to them slowly and smilingly and always respected their likes and dislikes.
