Qin Zhenghua's mother and wife of Qin Dagang (deputy director). In her forties, she has lived comfortably in recent years with permed hair and rouge on her cheekbones. She is calculating and snobbish, having used connections to get her son a job at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. She came to discuss Bei Qinghuan's wedding but her inner thoughts reveal she is only interested in Bei Qinghuan's dowry medicinal formula and kidney. She has a daughter named Zhenghong.
