黃贇，字止敬，臨江人。 Huang Yin, styled Zhijing, was from Linjiang.

父君道，延祐間求官京師，留贇江南。 His father Jundao went to the capital during the Yanyou reign to seek office, leaving Yin behind in Jiangnan.

時贇年幼，及既長，聞其父娶後妻居永平，乃往省之，則父歿已三年矣。 Yin was still a child then; when he grew up he learned his father had remarried and lived in Yongping, and set out to see him—only to find his father had died three years before.

庶母聞贇來，盡挾其貲去，更嫁，拒不見贇。 Hearing he was coming, his stepmother seized everything of value, remarried elsewhere, and refused to meet him.

贇號哭語人曰：「吾之來，為省吾父也。 Yin wept aloud and told others, "I came only to see my father.

贇哭禱於神，一夕夢老父以杖指葬處曰：「見片磚即可得。」 Yin wept and prayed to the gods; one night he dreamed his father pointed with a staff to the burial spot and said, "You will find it where you see a broken brick."
