having had from childhood no mother to guide you, how will you honour your mother-in-law?.

it's an excellent family; they will be kind to you, they will forgive you your mistakes.

although ours has been so pure and poor, that you can take them no great dowry.

be gentle and respectful, as a woman should be, careful of word and look, observant of good example.

It's from Wei Yingwu's

This is a father's warning to his soon-to-be-married daughter, and I hope she can respect herself and take home as her responsibility!
