Can my daughter spend the winter solstice at her parents' house?

Yes, if you are sick, you still have to go to the hospital.

In some cities in northern China, people think that they can't go back to their parents' homes on the solstice of winter. This is because the feudal ethics of "three obedience and four virtues" restricts the daughter-in-law. In the past, the daughter-in-law would go back to her mother's house after the autumn harvest, so she had the custom of going back to her husband's house from winter to Sunday.

Although there is no freedom in modern society if it is strictly observed, if family members are particularly concerned about these traditional customs, as the younger generation, we'd better discuss them with our families in good faith. The solstice in winter is a reunion festival, so we can't lose harmony with our families.
