Jia Xichun

Jia Xichun (Chinese: 賈惜春; pinyin: Jiǎ Xīchūn, rendered Compassion Spring in Chi-chen Wang's translation) is a primary character in the 18th century Chinese novel Dream of the Red Chamber.

She is the youngest of the quartet of "Springs", depicted as a young teenager or pre-teen for most of the book.

She is the sister of Jia Zhen, de facto head of the Ningguo House, and Baoyu's third cousin.

When she was little, her mother died, and Lady Wang brought her to live in the Rongguo Mansion.

After the fall of the house of Jia, Xichun becomes a Buddhist nun in place of Miaoyu.
