After a feast in the kitchen.
Su Yu quickly ate and packed another portion for the imperial concubine.
Of course, if she hadn't run away…
When she saw Su Yu's Deputy General Manager's python robe, she felt like she was in a bad mood.
However, the manager of the kitchen said that he didn't want any money. He said that he wanted to congratulate Su Yu on his promotion and that he would treat him!
However, Little Cheng wouldn't let him have the chance to suck up to him.
Without a word, he bid for an ingot of silver!
"Steward Zhu, my brother Yu has been promoted today, so naturally, I, Little Cheng, will congratulate him. If you want to treat us, there will be a chance next time.”
Little Cheng looked at Manager Zhu and said.
Steward Zhu had a fawning smile on his face and did not dare to refute.
In the past, if a little eunuch like Little Cheng dared to speak to him like this, he would not be able to continue being a steward even if the other party wanted to eat a full meal in the kitchen.
But today was different.
He knew Su Yu and Little Cheng.
Now that Su Yu had become the deputy director and Little Cheng was on good terms with him, his status had risen as well.
It was already not someone he, a kitchen steward, could afford to offend.
"Deputy General Manager Su, I don't have anything to say about your promotion today. Please accept this small gift…"
Steward Zhu took out a banknote from his pocket.
She quietly stuffed it into Su Yu's hands.
Although Little Cheng said so, he obviously couldn't wait until the next time.
That kind of flattery couldn't even compare to being warm!
Su Yu took the note and saw that it was worth five hundred taels!
This was much more than what Liang Qi from the Internal Affairs Office had given him just now.
That was true.
Places like the kitchen and the internal affairs department had a lot of money.
Looking at Steward Zhu's fat appearance, he usually ate secretly.
These five hundred silver notes were considered a greeting gift.
Su Yu smiled and put it away, but he still said,"Steward Zhu, you're too polite. Little Cheng and I grew up eating your cooking.”
Manager Zhu's mouth twitched.
Su Yu stuffed the money into his pocket and said such high-sounding words. He was shameless!
A pained expression flashed across his face.
But he still said with a fawning expression,"Deputy General Manager Su, what are you talking about? As long as you like to eat the food of our kitchen, it's my honor."”
Su Yu waved his hand and left with the lunchbox in his hand.
He did not intend to be an impartial eunuch deputy manager. Since this manager Zhu was so understanding, he naturally did not want to find trouble with him.
Officials protecting each other was an unchanging principle.
Even among the eunuchs in the Imperial City, it was the same.
Steward Zhu stole the profits, so he also got benefits.
As for who he got the money from, that was none of his business…
Little Cheng followed behind Su Yu.
Seeing that Su Yu had packed a meal, she couldn't help but say,"Brother Yu, it won't taste good if you take it back and it gets cold. If you're hungry tonight, just let me know and I'll bring you supper in the kitchen.”
"I didn't pack it back for supper.”
Su Yu shook his head.
"Then what are you doing, Brother Yu?" Little Cheng was confused.”
"Oh!"
Little Cheng immediately covered his mouth.
Of course, Su Yu wouldn't tell Little Cheng that the imperial concubine was with him, but he didn't hide the takeaway.
Even if Little Cheng guessed something.
Su Yu wanted to see if he would talk too much.
If he was trustworthy, he wouldn't mind nurturing him as a trusted aide.
It just so happened that he still had the two cultivation techniques left behind by Eunuch Hai, the [Sunflower Essence Treasured Bible] and the [Innate Gang Qi], which were specially tailored for young eunuchs like Little Cheng.
With these two cultivation methods, perhaps Little Cheng could also become a generation of eunuchs.
However, everything.
It had to be built on Little Cheng's trust.
On the way back, seeing that they were about to reach Su Yu's courtyard, Little Cheng tactfully said goodbye,"Brother Yu, I'll be leaving first. I still have a job to do tonight!”
"Alright, I'll look for you later if there's anything.”
Su Yu nodded and cut to the chase.
"Alright, Brother Yu!"
Little Cheng's face lit up and he walked in another direction.
Su Yu pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard. He could still feel the imperial concubine's scent in the room and couldn't help but smile.
It seemed that the Imperial Concubine was quite honest!
He closed the door of the courtyard.
He returned to his room.
The imperial concubine was sitting on the bed in a daze.
During lunch, Su Yu untied her hands and didn't tie them back.
At this moment, the Imperial Concubine rested her cheeks on her hands and stared blankly at the tightly shut window. No one knew what she was thinking.
As for the rope around her feet, Su Yu didn't untie it, and neither did she. They were still tied together…
It was…ridiculous!
Su Yu was surprised.
The imperial concubine did not look like such an honest person. Could it be that her awareness had increased?
"Imperial Concubine, what are you thinking about?”
Su Yu waved his hand in front of the imperial concubine's eyes.
"You're back."
The imperial concubine only came back to her senses when she saw Su Yu.
"Who else could it be other than me?"
Su Yu smiled and patted the imperial concubine's head."Looks like Imperial Concubine has thought things through and doesn't plan to leave?”
The imperial concubine rolled her eyes at him.
He didn't want to bother!
What did he mean by thinking it through!
If it wasn't for the fact that she hadn't recovered from her injuries and couldn't walk out of the palace, Su Yu wouldn't even see her if he came back!
"I'm hungry."
The imperial concubine looked at the food box in Su Yu's hand.
"Just one sentence?"
Su Yu smiled and said lazily.
The imperial concubine knew that Su Yu was going to make things difficult for her again.
She silently cursed Su Yu for being shameless in her heart, but she still said honestly,"Dad…Dad…I'm hungry…"
"Yes, so obedient."
Su Yu opened the lunchbox and handed it to her.
Seeing that the food in the lunchbox had obviously improved by a level, the imperial concubine was a little suspicious.
When she saw Su Yu's clothes, she realized what was going on."You, a fake eunuch, actually became the Deputy General Manager. Does the dog Emperor not have eyes?”
Su Yu flicked his head and said indifferently,"You haven't even eaten your food, and your mouth is already hard?”
"I was wrong."
The imperial concubine rubbed her forehead and immediately admitted defeat. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
She seemed to be afraid that Su Yu would snatch it from her again.
Just now, she saw Su Yu go from a eunuch to the deputy director of the internal court, and she was a little surprised.
That was why he had accidentally said what was on his mind.
Fortunately, Su Yu didn't argue with her and didn't take the food box from her hand. Instead, he said quietly,"You should know the name Xue Ji, right?”
Hearing this.
The imperial concubine, who was busy eating, was stunned. She looked at Su Yu in disbelief and asked,"How do you know Madam's name?”
