Marrying a daughter is the joy of returning home.
In modern times, the joy of returning home refers to the day when the bride and groom hold their wedding ceremony and entertain their relatives and friends. On the day of the Yu Gui banquet, the man will first come to the woman's house to pick up the bride and then go to the wedding venue together. Generally, the bride's family will stick Yu Gui couplets to celebrate her daughter's marriage, and the couplets will also express their expectations and blessings for their daughter's married life.
'Return' has the meaning of returning home. In the eyes of ancient people, a woman who marries into her husband's house is considered to have truly returned to her own home. For her mother's family, the water thrown out by her daughter after marriage becomes a guest in her mother's house and a master in her husband's house. So marrying a daughter is called 'the joy of returning home'.
