Lucien's mother. Lucien's father dies, leaving her in debt of 50 francs, and she struggles to pay it off. Although she is kind enough to let Lucien help with the housework and senses his feelings, she tends to prioritize her own emotions. When her son returned home, Lucien ran away because he could not stand Annette's cold treatment and the scornful eyes of the villagers; she tried to stop him, but was persuaded by the teacher Nicholas.
