It makes her a likable character as she tries to keep to herself the secret her husband told though she feels her blood raging inside her to let it out.
Explanation:
In the story Wife of Bath, where the knight is trying to find out the one trait a woman wants/likes and wishes so as to save his life (a punishment awaiting him), he gets to know about a story where, a wife of man with donkey's ears growing under his hair asks her not to reveal about it to anyone. Eventually, her effort to keep it a secret vanishes and everybody gets to know about it.
In these lines, the Wife talks about how being together is one of the most crucial and important part of marriage. She boldly talks about how every woman cannot be unmarried all her life. She also talks about how women, who are not involved with men are considered white breads. She compares all wives with barley bread, with which Christ fed to lot of people.
Her explanation makes the readers understand her honesty and sincerity. She wants to love her husband with all her heart by paying the debt of marriage to him. Her thoughts, so straight forward make us like her more because of her honest character.

-These lines are an attempt by Emerson to portray Brown as an everyman, that slaves can associate to. Brown has been exposed to the perils that slaves are subjected to when he saw their harsh realities as a child. This positions Brown as a relatable fellow amidst of being convicted for the violence behind his anti-slavery movement.
Emerson is a supporter of non-violence and is a surprising supporter of Brown. There is an aspect of Brown that he tries to bring to the surface. Emerson wants Brown's good intentions and motives so as to remove the spotlight on the main point of the movement.
