The wife of Han Mingxin (Fourth Uncle) is mentioned in the text when Old Madam Han repeats what “Lao Si’s wife” said. She is cunning and suggests that after Han Luoxue is sold to Liu the Butcher, Old Madam Han can later extort grain from her as her grandmother. She is part of the inner circle of the Old Han family’s scheming. She does not have a direct scene but is referenced as an instigator.
