    My Dear, I have a feeling that you are asking a question regarding protocol of your race and/or religion. I am not able to speak to that in particular, however I can tell you in general what is right.
    Now that you are married, you first priority is your husband. You and he will make decisions together regarding every aspect of your life together. Your parents nor his parents should have no say in those decisions. You may choose to ask for advice from any of them, and you choose whether to take the advice that is offered.
    You should treat your parents and his parents with honor and respect and he should do the same. Unless you live with one set of parents you are not obligated to "obey" any of them. If you do live with them, you should respect the rules of their household and participate with the upkeep and chores of the home.
    You and your husband are a family all your own now, separate from both sets of parents. Good luck to you.
