Ch dicts are like
形容女子賢能和善,通情達理

I understand that one may want to translate as "virtuous wife": she has all the wifely virtues. "chaste" however is shifting the emphasis where it is not.

LA says 賢惠 (陆)今不用, I am a bit surprised
Diff:
- 賢惠 贤惠 [xian2 hui4] /chaste/virtuous/
+ 賢惠 贤惠 [xian2 hui4] /variant of 賢慧|贤慧[xian2 hui4]/
 
- 賢慧 贤慧 [xian2 hui4] /variant of 賢惠|贤惠[xian2 hui4]/
+ 賢慧 贤慧 [xian2 hui4] /(of a wife) wise and kind/perfect in her traditional roles/
