Chapter 18
Ding Sha happily took the small account book to find him, and even put the opened book in front of him and pointed to that number and said, "A Jun! Look! We earned a lot of money!"

"More than we originally estimated!"

When Xiao Jun took a look at the net profit, and then looked at her flushed little face because of excitement, the depressed feeling that had been pent up in his heart suddenly dissipated.

No matter how much he disliked it, as long as she was happy it was fine.

At worst... he would try harder to treat her even better, so that no one else could compare.

Xiao Jun supported her, "Sha Sha is really amazing! We earned so much!"

Ding Sha clipped the book under her arm, and started counting off on her fingers.

"Hmm, actually it's not really that much, we still have to buy you a car, and buy you some clothes, the house also needs some furniture and appliances..."

"It will be autumn and winter soon, then there will be a lot of thick quilts, thick clothes and so on that we'll need to buy..."

As Ding Sha spoke, she sighed, "Money really doesn't go far, does it..."

Xiao Jun pursed his lips, "I'll earn it."

Seeing his expression, Ding Sha knew he was feeling down, so she stroked his face, "I know, I believe in you." We're much better off now than before, and we can save money too."

Xiao Jun murmured in agreement, but he was thinking about how to earn more money.

Ding Sha was getting heavier, and she was also starting to get sleepy, often not waking up until nearly noon.

Sister-in-law Zhuang took on the job of server in the lobby, and would wash dishes occasionally when not busy. She was used to this kind of work and was very neat and efficient.

Auntie Zhuang helped prep food in the kitchen earlier, then went to the front cash register to settle accounts. Xiao Jun observed that she calculated the bills very quickly and almost never made mistakes.

"Boss, there's something I want to talk to you about," Sister-in-law Zhuang said hesitantly while washing vegetables.

Xiao Jun glanced at her while slicing potatoes next to her, "Go ahead."

"It will be autumn soon, and the boss's belly has gotten bigger too. It's time to buy her some warmer clothes to change into," Auntie Zhuang had wanted to say this for a while but hadn't dared.

"Also, pregnant women become more and more uncomfortable in late pregnancy. There are a lot of things that need to be prepared in advance, those pads and pillows and the like, they all need to be ready."

Xiao Jun listened carefully when he heard it was about Ding Sha's needs. "Why don't you make me a list of what needs to be bought, and I'll go shopping this afternoon when I have time."

Only then did Auntie Zhuang sigh in relief with a smile, "Good good, I'll write it for you after I finish up here."

Seeing that Xiao Jun didn't seem as stern as he looked, she also dared to chat with him casually, "I reckon the boss is about five or six months pregnant now?"

"Almost six months," Xiao Jun's expression softened involuntarily. He and Ding Sha didn't have experienced older female relatives around them, so he had been a little worried in his heart all this time.

Now someone was willing to talk to him more about it, and he was also willing to listen.

"The boss is too thin," Auntie Zhuang frowned. "Is the morning sickness bad?"
