Jiang Wanning's maternal grandfather, now 73 years old. He is the Grand Preceptor who lives alone in the Grand Preceptor's Manor after his wife (the Mistress) married out. He donated half his wealth to poor scholars and the other half went to his daughter as dowry. He is kind-hearted and never strict with the servants, which allowed them to become brazen. He often suffers from minor illnesses that were sabotaged.
