Shen Liren's wife and Shen Li's aunt. She cooked for the household using Shen Li's family money despite being paid 150 yuan a month, which was more than an eighth-grade technician's salary of 100 yuan. She favored her son Shen Mingtang and was dismissive of Shen Li's needs. She usually cooked spicy food according to her family's taste, knowing Shen Li could not eat spicy food after her illness. She wished to tear Shen Li apart after the table-flipping incident but was silenced by her husband's glare.
