Silently cried not to wake a heap of children. Struggled desperately, that the family has not run into full need and poverty. And here - in forty years was ill with a consumption, and in forty one have brought it on a cemetery "("Ural Mountains", 1982, No 11). The patriarchal hierarchy assumed domination of men over women, seniors over the younger. The order depended on the woman in the house, well-being of cattle, the help in field works, crop preservation, manufacture of fabrics.
