Chapter 25
“Uncle Wei is here?” Ding Sha was a little happy to see him, she had a pile of things she wanted to do.

Uncle Wei stood up, “Hey, I’m here. Little brother asked me to make a crib, but I ran into some problems, so I came to ask you guys.”

“What’s the matter? Did something happen?” Ding Sha asked hurriedly.

“It's nothing much, just that I got some good materials recently, all good wood, including a kind of cherry wood, very stable and beautiful grain, but a bit expensive. I came to ask if you guys want it or not?” Uncle Wei gestured.

His old friend brought back a batch of wood from the overseas market, claiming it was some C9 level good wood. He didn't know what level it was, he just knew that this wood, no matter how it looked, felt or knocked, was dense and solid, a good piece of wood.

Xiao Jun nodded, “We’ll take it, Uncle Wei, just make it.”

Ding Sha also nodded, “Don’t make it too patterned, simple and elegant is good. I'm afraid it would poke the baby.”

Uncle Wei rubbed his hands happily and put away his tobacco pouch, “With you guys saying this, I feel reassured. Don't worry, I’ll definitely use good materials. When it's done, I’ll bring it to you guys, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied.”

Uncle Wei left eagerly.

Xiao Jun sent Ding Sha back home and then went out to look for a parking space. He wanted to get everything done as soon as possible, otherwise it would be upsetting if he hadn’t gotten it done when he needed it.

After two or three days, he rented the parking space, got the license plate, and took care of all the paperwork.

Ding Sha took Gong Sister-in-law shopping at the vegetable market, bought a bunch of things and came back wanting to make hot pot for dinner.

Xiao Jun wasn't home, so Ding Sha verbally instructed Auntie Zhuang to stir fry the ingredients.

First, she stewed a pot of beef bone chicken soup in a small pot, simmering it slowly, and the aroma overflowed.

Then she had Auntie Zhuang prepare some dried chilies cooked in water then chopped, green onion sections, and a large plate of green onion and coriander, then wrapped some fragrant leaves, cassia bark, star anise, medlar and other spices to soak in liquor and crushed.

She lit the stove, poured half a pot of beef oil, and when the oil was hot, she first fried the green onions and coriander until fragrant then removed them. Then she added the chili sections, broad bean paste, some secret chili sauce and spices in succession, stirred well, then poured in a can of beer and a few rock sugars.

Finally, she threw in a handful of red and green Sichuan peppercorns.

After cooling down, in no time, a pot of numbingly spicy and aromatic beef oil base was done.

After making a mess in the kitchen, even her body was permeated with the smell of the spicy pot.

Gong Sister-in-law washed the ingredients while urging Ding Sha to go back and change her clothes.

When Ding Sha came out after changing her clothes, she saw Xiao Jun had come back, holding a paper bag in his hand.

He sniffed, “Smells good, hot pot for dinner tonight?”

“Yeah, hot pot.” Ding Sha smiled and went up to meet him.

Xiao Jun pulled her to sit down and handed her the paper bag.

"A gift for you."

"A gift?" Ding Sha asked, unable to hold back the upward curl of her lips.

"Take a look?" Xiao Jun looked at her expectantly.
