"Did I wear this jewelry incorrectly? It keeps swaying back and forth!" Elizabeth said to Zhu Wencong.
"This is called a 'bù yáo,' and it's not suitable for you because it's a type of jewelry used to regulate a woman's walk.
A woman who can wear such jewelry is usually from a wealthy family, so they seldom step out of their main doors and hardly ever out of their gates. The purpose of the 'bù yáo' is to highlight the wearer's quiet grace, calm composure, and the lotus steps that are taken at every step.
In short, without systematic learning, you can't really master it. Walk too slowly and you lack a lively charm. Walk too quickly, and it jingles in a way that loses composure.
You should just honestly stick to the clothes you wore before. Eastern clothing is quite profound and requires specialized instruction," Zhu Wencong explained.
