A woman with a melon seed-shaped face, married to Du Yicheng, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. She is Han Manxi's true cousin, the daughter of Mei Yiniang's biological brother. She has been married for several years but remains a virgin because Du Yicheng deceived her about being impotent. She suffers constant mistreatment from her mother-in-law who calls her a barren hen. She was so hungry she ate pastries urgently at the teahouse and burst into tears upon learning the truth about Du Yicheng.
