Abstract
[In China’s feudal period, clan or family was the basic social unit. Family organizations in the unit of households played various social functions, such as production, taxation, education, and public security. Although the family members formed family lineages around the male patriarchs as the core, women were the blood ties for creating, reproducing and connecting the family relationship. Liu Xi’s Shi Min said that “family means to take part with each other; relative means the continuation of bounties”.]
