Can u tell me the exact reason why the peddler changed his perspective after the encounter with edla but not with the crofter though both provided a good deal of hospitality?

The crofter was kind to the peddler: something he was not accustomed to. But, the crofter offered his hospitality to the peddler as he yearned for company and enjoyed someone to talk to. Edla, on the other hand, offered selfless kindness and treated him with warmth. She realised that the peddler was not Captain Von Stahle. Still, she requests her father to offer him genuine hospitality as they had promised him Christmas cheer. Her true and genuine compassion for the peddler has a deep impact on him and he wishes to transform and repay her kindness.
