After 1 hr drive we reached to there home or say my new home for next 1 month.
There were few ladies already waiting for us, it was ritual to welcome the new trial bride at new home. At door they greated me and performed few pooja and rituals.
Then that day It was my muh dikhai, so I was suppose to sit on an floor in middle with ghunghat and every lady comes and lifts my ghunghat to see my face and in return as blessing they hand me over some money.
So it continued till evening many ladies kept on coming and I was too tiered.
Then once it all finished my mother in law showed me my room and the wardrobe she has already done all shopping for me with so many color full dresses and clothes.
I was still not 100 percent comfortable but I knew I will get used to it in few days.
But still I was not knowing who the boy is, who is my so called husband.
Then next morning as instructed by my mom, I woke up at 5am and got fresh and got ready as a new bride in dress with all jewelry and makup.
I went to kitchen and made tea for everyone. Then in tray I took the tea and went to my mother in law room. There I gave them tea and then touched there feet to take there blessing. Then I asked mother in law that who else are there in home and what should I prepare in breakfast.
She told me that in our family only there is something small daughter of age 15 so I should give her milk not tea and her son( my husband) is not in home he has gone to native place. We also have reservation for home and you are also coming with us.
I was still curious who will be my husband, I could not even see a photo of him.
I boiled the milk and took to Tina room(my sister in law) She was sweet little girl. She wished me and greated me as bhabhi. It was so nice words coming out of her mouth. We chit chatted a little and then I gave a kiss on her cheek and went to kitchen.
I prepared aalo paratha for all of them and served them breakfast. All liked it and even as a reward my mother in law gave me a gold necklace.
Then in afternoon my mother in law taught all there house custom and culture. She told me I should use ghunghat with all men in home. Even to my husband. Yes that's true my husband is not suppose to see my face at all till 1 month. He need to choose me for my work and duty and not by my beauty. I agreed .
Next day morning we all took flight and went to there hometown. It was just 30 km from my hometown. So I was familiar with that place.
