The elders educate, manage and punish their juniors based on family interests and family face. Family law refers to the legal system applied within the family and a way of internal family management. In ancient society, in order to maintain the dignity and interests of the family, family members must respect each other and abide by the rules, in which case the family law becomes a restraining force. When the younger generation made a mistake, it would not only affect their own reputation, but also the reputation and interests of the whole family. Therefore, the elders demanded that the "family law", that is to say, the younger generation be punished and penalized within the family, in order to warn their descendants, and at the same time, it was also a kind of demonstration of the authority of the family leaders.
