弱兒年甫六歲，名靖，字依仁，情累所不能忘，敢以為託耳。」 My weak son is just six years old; his name is Jing, his style Yiren—the ties of feeling I cannot forget; I venture to entrust him to you."

又吾終尠兄弟，無他子孫，靖年幼少，未閑人事，但可三月施小床，設香水，盡卿兄弟相厚之情，即除之，無益之事，勿為也。」 I have few brothers and no other heirs; Jing is young and knows nothing of the world. For three months only, set out a small couch and incense to show your brotherly bond, then put them away—do not do anything needless."
