A thirteen-year-old contracted maid serving as Ninth Master's reading companion. She signed a lifelong contract and is not a born servant of the Chu Mansion, making her status lower than born servants. She is literate, quiet, reserved, and observant. She dreams of saving enough manumission silver to redeem herself and return home to care for her ailing father. She was promoted to manage Mr. Lin's family arrangements and later considered for placement in Ninth Master's quarters as a tongfang maid.
