Zhao Xinhe is Zhao Ke's second uncle. His house is located on the north side of the path in Zhao Village, specifically the eastern house of the two homes belonging to brothers. He is described as particularly prolific, having a total of seven children—five sons and two daughters. One of his sons, Zhao Shuan Zhu, was adopted by Zhao Jianfa. The youngest son got married last year and moved out, so now Zhao Xinhe and his wife live with their eldest son.
