Ning Xin is the Third Miss of the Ning family, daughter of the Third Branch. She often acts in concert with Ning Qing, joining her in snatching jewelry and fabric. She is easily frightened and lacks her sister's poise. When Mother Ning arrives aggressively, she instinctively cries out and hides behind Ning Qing. She is equally guilty in spreading rumors and taking advantage of the First Branch. She is materialistic, wanting a set of pink jade jewelry that she hopes to get by playing the victim.
