The concept of "Nine Grades" does not imply hierarchy or social status; it is not the feudal system's official ranking. Here, "Nine Grades" is used metaphorically to categorize women's temperament. A woman may not be beautiful or wealthy, but she cannot lack temperament. Once temperament is discovered, confidence naturally rises.
