Disobedience (2017)

Esti Kuperman: Oh, Ronit.
Ronit Krushka: Esti... When I saw you, I.
Esti Kuperman: Yes, me too.

Ronit Krushka: Esti, do you think I should go back early?
Esti Kuperman: No... no. No, I don't think you should leave at all.

Question: Why does Ronit put on a Sheitel before discussing her late father's house with her uncle? She's not married, so despite not practising the faith anyway, I'm not sure how doing so would appease him.
