丁母憂，尋起為本官。 When his mother died he entered mourning, but he was soon recalled to his former office.

母傅氏，雅有操識。 His mother, Lady Fu, was refined in conduct and judgment.

彥深三歲，傅便孀居，家人欲以改適，自誓以死。 When Yanshen was three, Lady Fu was already a widow; the family wanted her to remarry, but she swore she would die first.

彥深五歲，傅謂之曰：「家貧兒小，何以能濟？」 When Yanshen was five, Lady Fu said to him, "We are poor and you are small — how can we live?"

傅感其意，對之流涕。 Lady Fu was moved by his words and wept with him.

及彥深拜太常卿，還，不脫朝服，先入見母，跪陳幼小孤露，蒙訓得至於此。 When Yanshen was made grand master of ceremonies and returned, he did not change out of court dress but went first to his mother, knelt, and said that as a small orphan he had come to this only through her teaching.

後為宜陽國太妃。 Later she was made grand princess dowager of Yiyang.
