Chapter 933: Chapter 934 She Was Once Like That...

Now that Tobanya is living in Prince Yi’s Mansion, An Jing just thought that if she could take care of Tobanya, she would.

To be honest, when Tobanya initially wanted her husband to take her on as a disciple, An Jing really disliked Tobanya. But now, after understanding what Tobanya was for, she didn’t dislike her at all.

The way she felt about Tobanya now was only deep sympathy.

Initially, she too had been one person, living alone, forlorn, and without support, just like Tobanya was now.

"Mm," Xiao Changyi had no objections. He knew his wife sympathized with Tobanya.

Then, An Jing asked the maidservants of the mansion to call Tobanya over.

When Tobanya arrived, An Jing was griddling egg pancakes, and Xiao Changyi was frying pork loin in another pot.

Tobanya had never been in a kitchen before. However, since Prince Yi and Princess Yi were there, both of whom held higher status than her, she hardly hesitated and entered the kitchen.

"Prince, Princess," Tobanya bowed slightly to Xiao Changyi and An Jing.

"You’re here," An Jing saw Tobanya and was very happy and also very enthusiastic, "But it’s not quite time to eat yet, you’ll have to wait a moment."

Tobanya politely said, "Being able to eat food personally made by the Prince and Princess, Wild Goose Jade doesn’t mind waiting however long it takes."

An Jing smiled and said, "You don’t have to wait very long, but I’m afraid you might not like it. However, we thought you probably haven’t had this before, so we still called you over to join the fun."

"Thank you, Prince and Princess, for thinking of Wild Goose Jade," Tobanya said this as she walked to the entrance of the kitchen and began helping An Jing and Xiao Changyi to stoke the fire in the two stoves.

With both the Prince and Princess busy at work, it didn’t seem right for her to just stand by and watch; it was better to lend a hand.

However, having never done this kind of work before, Tobanya almost extinguished the fire in the stove.

Tobanya, clearly a Commandery Princess, lacked any trace of affectation and sincerely helped to light the fire at the kitchen entrance without bothering about the dirt, which made An Jing see her in a new light.

"The wood doesn’t just get shoved in like that, you have to leave some gaps, so the fire doesn’t go out," seeing Tobanya didn’t know how to make a fire, An Jing smiled and went over to teach her.

Tobanya listened and watched carefully.

After An Jing finished teaching, she handed the fire tongs back to Tobanya and smiled, "It’s good that you came early, you can help us with the fire."

Tobanya smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "I’ve never made a fire before and don’t know how, so I’ve made the Princess laugh at me."

As An Jing continued to spread the egg pancakes by the stove, she laughed, "When I first made a fire, I was much worse than you. You’re actually doing pretty well."

Soon after, An Jing asked, "I’ve never inquired before, but are you accustomed to living here?"

Tobanya said, "Thanks to the Prince and Princess’s hospitality, Wild Goose Jade is very used to it."

An Jing said, "You don’t have to be so polite. There’s nothing else in this mansion, just plenty of rooms. They would be empty if you didn’t live in them."

Tobanya didn’t say anything more, just politely smiled at An Jing.

An Jing, seeing that even Tobanya’s smile seemed to carry a touch of aloof coolness, couldn’t help but smile inwardly: What a serene beauty. Truly the kind of beauty that takes one’s breath away.

It was also at this time that four little ones had finished playing and, hand in hand, made their way back.

And before they had even entered the kitchen, they called out in their milky voices to An Jing and Xiao Changyi, "Daddy, Mommy, we’re back, are the egg-stuffed pancakes ready yet?"
