Bao Jingyan finished speaking.
The old lady was greatly shaken in her heart.
Though her time was short, her mind was clear.
Jingyan's child.
Bao Jiaren!
The old lady struggled to turn onto her side, tears brimming in her aged eyes.
Bao Jingyan placed the little baby beside the old lady.
The old lady stared at the baby for a good while.
She said softly, "Well-formed! Like her mother."
Gui Zhi held her breath desperately.
Oh heavens... what did she know!
She didn't dare to listen any further.
At that moment, the old lady, having been agitated, became tired.
She closed her eyes, and softly said, "Gui Zhi, fetch the jade necklace that came with my dowry... give it to the little miss."
Gui Zhi wiped away her tears.
She hummed in acknowledgment and immediately began looking for it.
Shortly after, she retrieved it and gently placed it in the small infant's arms.
The old lady gave her a deep look.
