The reason and statement that I can't go back to my parents' home from the winter solstice

There is a folk proverb that you can't go back to your mother's house on the solstice of winter. It is said that it is very bad for my father-in-law to go back to my parents' home on this day.

There is also a saying in the countryside that "the solstice of winter is not winter, and my father-in-law dies in winter". Although everyone thinks this is a feudal idea, no one dares to offend it on purpose. From another point of view, the saying that you can't go back to your mother's house from winter solstice can mediate the relationship between husband and wife to some extent.

For example, when a daughter returns to her mother's house after marrying her husband's family, the man can take these remarks as a step and invite his wife to go home for the holidays.

In the early days, "three obedience and four virtues" was a very important thought for women. Therefore, the daughter-in-law in her early years will pack her bags and go back to her family for a period of time after the busy farming (planting wheat in autumn) and spend the winter.
