Shi Zhaodi is a minor character in the story, a small woman with two braids who lives with Aunt Fatty. She appears when Qin Huai brings the injured Aunt Fatty home after the bicycle accident. She is described as having her eyes fixed on Qin Huai when she opens the door, asking gently who he is looking for. Her face turns red from her cheeks to her neck when Aunt Fatty yells at her from behind to stop dawdling and help. She appears to be Aunt Fatty's daughter or a close relative, and is portrayed as shy and demure, contrasting sharply with her mother's loud and abrasive personality. Her brief appearance serves to illustrate the domestic situation of Aunt Fatty's household and provides a moment of quiet contrast to the preceding drama.
