I think this change both helps and hurts the novel, because the aspect of the novel changes, but the change that ocurs is a good change. The point of view changes in the 3 chapters because Luo, Old Miller, and The Little Seamstress are all getting to tell a story from their points of view, so in that case they are speaking in 1st person. Then as the novel starts to die down the little seamstress is speaking back into 1st person because she then becomes the narrator.
