Can my daughter go back to her mother's house on New Year's Day? Why?

New Year's Day is a holiday for family reunion. According to traditional customs, many places prohibit married daughters from returning to their parents' homes on the first day of the New Year's Day.

Because in the concept of people in these areas, married daughters are like spilled water, and they need to get together with their in-laws during the New Year. If you go back to your parents' home for the New Year, it will lead to the situation that your husband's family can't get together.

But the implication is that the married daughter is already someone else's daughter-in-law. There must be many people in her husband's family coming to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year, and the daughter-in-law has to help bring tea and water, so she can't go back to her family on the first day of the New Year. On the first day of New Year's Day, the married daughter goes back to her family, which means that she has to eat poor at home, so she can only go back to her family on the second or third day.
