The dolls were created by the grandmother, whenever she was having an argument with her husband.

So he thought that out of 50 years together, his wife was only upset twice and found it rather flattering.

When he asked her how she could have such a large amount of money, this is what she said:

"Right after our wedding, my grandmother told me that the secret to a good marriage is to never get mad. So when I was mad at you, I kept my silence and knitted a doll."?

She added: "I got the money from selling all the other dolls."
