Chapter 808: Taking Advantage (3)

The Fang Family, just one month after the grand banquet held to celebrate the old patriarch's birthday, was once again decked out in lanterns and streamers, this time because Madam Fang was about to acknowledge a goddaughter.

In ancient times, the recognition of god-relations was not as casual as it became in modern society, where the terms godfather and godmother could be thrown around lightly, and later even became a kind of specific symbol.

During that period, recognizing god-relations was an incredibly solemn affair, and once acknowledged, except for the lack of a blood relationship, all other responsibilities were the same as those of actual parents. If taken seriously enough, the godchild might even be included in the family genealogy.
