A female intellectual youth and activist who traveled with her boyfriend Lu Guochang on a Liberation truck to the provincial capital. She was very energetic, constantly singing red songs and reciting revolutionary poems, and would label anyone lacking enthusiasm as backward. Her family opposed their relationship so they impulsively signed up to go to the countryside together. She was bossy and used to being served by men. She attempted to get water from the truck driver Lu Yao and passenger Li Weixin but was rebuffed by Lu Yao's cold authoritative voice.
