Where there are no oxen, the crib is empty: but where there is much corn, there the strength of the ox is manifest.
Proverbs 14:4

But the point is, she has never even considered it as her job to "keep house." She is not a house-keeper. If her only job was to keep the house clean, she could be replaced by a maid who might not even speak her family's language. (But could probably do a better job.)
