The answer

The wife is not religiously obligated to go to her husband's family's house first after traveling, nor are the husband's family obligated to visit their son's wife. However, one should act wisely. It would have been easy for the wife's family to understand their daughter going to her husband's family first. Now, the wife should visit her husband's family, and they should welcome her, so that problems do not arise and everyone lives in harmony.
