Jiang Huiwan's mother, who worked as a financial officer at the local textile factory. She harbored deep resentment toward her first husband who abandoned her and poured that hatred onto Jiang Huiwan through emotional coldness, strict demands, constant scolding, and neglect.

She is described as an educated woman who never physically abused her daughter.
