"Draupadi praises her own attitude towards Kunti, and yet, it seems, implies that her relationship with her mother-in-law is not the ideal one stressed, and that her exemplary behavior has called for great sacriļ¬ces on her part. Furthermore, she subtly chides her husbands once again for their lack of understanding of household matters and their inability to control the treasury."
