So What If He's the Older Brother? - Chapter Twenty-Two: Good News (Plot)

Qin Jue pulled He Yu's left hand and massaged it with the techniques of a martial arts master. His voice was a little weak. "Didn't I massage you this morning? Your body is too weak. You'll practice martial arts with me from now on. I'll have Dong Xue prepare trousers and a short-sleeved shirt for you right now."
"No need, I don't have the extra energy for that."
Her casual remark made Qin Jue, who had just stood up, stop in his tracks. The next moment, she withdrew her hand, and the sudden loss made Qin Jue's heart clench. His hot palms instantly became sweaty, as if he could never hold on to her again once he lost her.
Her unusually cold attitude quickly dismissed Qin Jue, and they did not appear until the lamps were lit. She ordered the lamps to be extinguished, lay down on the bed early, and waited until it was quiet outside before climbing out of the room through the back window.
She still had some dull pain in her lower body, and she walked with great difficulty.
She had a date with Qiuyi; on nights when Qin Song and Qin Jue didn't come, they would meet by the pond.
This time, autumn brought good news.
“Miss, Miss, I’ve found out that the Yue Niang you mentioned went to Hua County in mid-June. She went to offer incense after learning of your mother’s death and has been inquiring about your whereabouts everywhere.”
Yue Niang was a skilled swordswoman with exceptional martial arts skills. She was a regular courier and would visit He Yu and He Zhi every June and December. She would bring He Yu delicious food, fun toys, and beautiful clothes, and leave He Zhi some money to deal with the unruly neighbors, thus enabling the frail mother and daughter to get through each winter and summer.
He Yu didn't know who she was or why she was helping the mother and daughter. However, she learned and felt more resilience and brilliance from her than from her own mother.
Every time she came, her mother would cry for half a month and give Yue Niang the needlework she had been working on for most of the year. He Yu guessed that Yue Niang must have a son who was about the same age as her, so her mother always made some things for young children to give to Yue Niang.
If things hadn't come to this, He Yu wouldn't have wanted to trouble Yue Niang, because she could sense that there was an unspeakable secret between Yue Niang and her mother.
But now, Yue Niang is the only one she can rely on, so she must find her as soon as possible.
He Yu's gaze softened as she thought of Yue Niang. She seemed to already see Yue Niang with her dark skin and thick eyebrows, frantically asking about her whereabouts, so much so that she frightened the children on the roadside to tears.
"Hmm, any other news?"
"I gave several peddlers small favors and asked them to pass on a message along the way: whoever could bring Yue Niang to Xuzhou would be richly rewarded. I inquired about the restaurant's profits and felt that the amount of one hundred taels you mentioned was too large and might bring trouble, so I changed the reward to thirty-two taels without my permission."
He Yu nodded in approval. "Well done, Qiu Yi. Go and exchange the silver notes. Keep fifty taels for your home use. From now on, just keep an eye on Yue Niang's affairs. Be careful not to let the eldest and second young masters find out."
"Don't worry, Miss, I understand. But Miss... I'm all alone with no family, and I have nowhere to spend this large sum of money. If I spend it myself, people will suspect something..." Qiu Yi touched her neck, looking conflicted, unsure how to spend such a large sum of money.
He Yu deceived Qiu Yi, saying that what she was doing was just a small matter. In fact, she was very flustered, afraid that she would not be able to escape, and also afraid that Qiu Yi, who helped her, would be punished after being caught. He Yu was worried about the safety of Qiu Yi and her family.
After several conversations, she discovered that Qiuyi was much more clever than she had imagined, which gave her the courage to entrust tasks to her. Today was also the first time she learned that Qiuyi had no family.
"No, nothing?" He Yu suddenly had another idea.
“Miss, you don’t know this, but three or five out of ten poor people like me don’t have parents. They were either sold when they were too young to remember, or they died or were separated from their families due to poverty.”
He Yu nodded in understanding and offered Qiu Yi some advice: "You can use the money to find someone to partner with and start a small business. Some women are good at making food, but they don't have the money to rent a shop. You provide the money and they provide the labor. You sign the deed and write a contract that allows your partner to use the property. Find an experienced shopkeeper to write a document that you both agree to. You can discuss whether the profits are split 50/50 or 40/60 later. This way, you can make money from money."
Qiu Yi's eyes lit up as she listened. "My goodness, Miss is amazing! Isn't this kind of business acumen something only wealthy men possess? How come you know so much?"
He Yu smiled faintly, "These are all minor matters. There are many intricacies involved. Would you like to learn them?"
Judging from He Yu's tone, he is willing to teach her!
"This servant, this servant wants to learn, thank you, Miss!" Qiu Yi said, kowtowing twice to He Yu.
He Yu quickly helped her up, but she refused to get up, tilting her head back with a face full of gratitude. "Miss is simply my second mother! I swear I will follow you to the death! Not just because of what you said, but because it is so rare to have such a kind mistress who cares for her servants! I am so lucky to have met you, and I will follow you forever!"
"Alright, alright, I understand your feelings. Get up now." He Yuqin smiled, her expression serene and gentle.
Little did she know, her heart was already filled with desolation and emptiness, and she would not let go of anyone who could help her leave the Qin family.
He Yu touched Qiu Yi's hair and sighed inwardly: I'm sorry, Qiu Yi, I have to drag you away from the Qin residence because you know too much. You might not be able to withstand the interrogation and reveal my whereabouts. But don't worry, I will teach you business skills without reservation...
Meanwhile, Yue Niang, who was asking around everywhere, was extremely anxious.
Although He Zhi already showed signs of illness when they last met, no one expected her to leave so quickly. What's even more frightening is that He Yu was taken away by an unknown wealthy family.
When I first arrived in Huaxian, I heard from my neighbors that a wealthy carriage had picked her up. At that time, everyone in the alley was driven away by the servants. Their manner was quite forceful. No one saw who picked up He Yu. Maybe a rich man took a fancy to He Yu and took advantage of the fact that no one was helping him to abduct her.
Yue Niang was so anxious that she almost beat up the neighbor who had spoken.
She dared not delay, and sent a message by carrier pigeon to Chang'an: He Zhi had died of illness, and He Yu had gone missing. On the eighth day of the second month, a wealthy man's carriage took him away from his home. The servants cleared the area, and no one was allowed to watch. She had searched all the wealthy households in Hua County and the three surrounding counties, but to no avail.
After resting for two days, He Yu faced another sleepless night. That night, around midnight, she suddenly got her period, which terrified the two brothers, who thought that they had hurt He Yu's stomach by being too rough.
The courtyard was brightly lit, and people were frantically calling for doctors and female physicians. He Yu had been menstruating for over a year and had never experienced such pain before, so she didn't think about it that way. She didn't know that the blood was menstrual blood, so she bit her tongue and vowed to never let anyone examine her.
Her only thought was that she must not let anyone know that her brothers were committing incest with her.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Dongxue knelt beside the bed and whispered to Heyu, "Is your stomach cold? Do you feel a tearing pain in your passage?"
He Yu was so agitated that she was afraid Dong Xue was trying to lie to her. If she didn't bite her tongue and threaten to commit suicide, Qin Song and Qin Jue would definitely hold her down without any scruples and have others hold her legs to check her. They might as well just let her bleed out!
Dongxue gently coaxed her, "No one noticed that we were talking. I have experience. You just need to tell me how you feel, and I will know if you are alright... Actually, women's bodies are very strong. Not to mention a man's two ounces, they can even carry a six or seven-pound baby."
He Yu was convinced and mumbled, "It's cold, not a tearing pain, but a dragging pain. I feel like I need to go to the toilet, and it feels like the flesh in my stomach is going to fall out, sob sob sob..."
Dongxue breathed a sigh of relief and comforted her, "It's alright, Miss. This is menstrual blood. There's no need for the female physician to examine you. The doctor just needs to take your pulse and prescribe some warming and blood-activating medicine."
He Yu asked with some skepticism, "Really?"
Dongxue stood up and curtsied, "Really." Then she reported to Qin Song and Qin Jue.
Fortunately, it was all a false alarm. The doctor prescribed medicine, and we quickly caught the medicine and cooked it.
In the sweltering summer heat, He Yu hugged a hot water bottle to warm her stomach, sweating profusely, which at least made her stomach feel a little better.
