He taught them step by step how to better use their spiritual power and soul to sense the subtle changes in the furnace, and how to accurately control the fusion process of medicinal materials so that each medicinal material can exert its maximum effect.

During this process, due to the particularity of alchemy, some physical contact between the three people is inevitable.

Whether it was Li Zimo correcting Liu Wanying's gestures or helping Su Qingrou adjust the trajectory of her spiritual power, these subtle touches seemed to inadvertently bring them closer together.

As time goes by, the relationship between the three people grows quietly in ambiguity and tacit understanding, and the air is filled with an indescribable warmth and sweetness.

In the end, under Li Zimo's careful guidance, both Liu Wanying and Su Qingrou made significant progress.

They each successfully refined a furnace of five Spirit Gathering Pills and Qi Condensing Pills. This was not only a breakthrough in quantity, but also a leap in quality.

Looking at the round, plump and brightly colored pills in their hands, their faces were filled with unconcealable joy and pride.

Their eyes were filled with gratitude and tenderness when they looked at Li Zimo, while Su Qingrou's eyes were filled with deep admiration and love.

At this moment, Li Zimo also felt unprecedented satisfaction and sense of accomplishment.

Their talent in alchemy is also not low, not much worse than Lu Xueqing. I believe that Yaoxiang Pavilion will prosper after they join.

Seeing that the atmosphere was harmonious, Li Zimo called Mr. Ma and signed a contract with the two of them. Both of them chose a ten-year contract.

After Li Zimo finished dealing with the contract matters, he led Mr. Ma, Liu Wanying and Su Qingrou to the residential area in the backyard.

The sun shines on the bluestone path in the backyard, with green trees on both sides, adding a bit of comfort to this quiet afternoon.

They finally stopped in front of an elegant courtyard next to Li Zimo's courtyard, which would become the new home of Liu Wanying and Su Qingrou.

"The environment here is quiet and suitable for you to practice and refine pills."

Li Zimo spoke to them with a smile, his eyes full of care and expectation for them.

After arranging everything, Li Zimo nodded goodbye to them and turned to walk towards his own courtyard.

Returning to the familiar courtyard, a warm atmosphere hit me.

He pushed open the door and saw Xiaodie sitting at the table. The table was filled with steaming food, the aroma of which made him very hungry.

When Xiaodie saw Li Zimo coming in, her eyes lit up instantly. She stood up, ran over lightly, and threw herself into Li Zimo's arms like a happy little bird.

"Brother Zimo, you're back!"

Her voice was full of joy and dependence.

Li Zimo gently hugged Xiaodie, feeling her tenderness and innocence, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He lowered his head and gently kissed Xiaodie's rosy lips, then pulled her to sit at the table.

The two of them ate and chatted, the atmosphere was warm and sweet.

Li Zimo told Xiaodie that Liu Wanying and Su Qingrou had joined Yaoxiang Pavilion, and his words revealed his recognition and expectations for these two new members.

After hearing this, Xiaodie also showed a relieved smile. She knew that the future of Yaoxiang Pavilion would definitely get better and better, and the young lady could practice with more peace of mind.

After dinner, Li Zimo and Xiaodie walked hand in hand on the path in the backyard. The sunlight shone on them through the gaps in the leaves, leaving mottled light and shadows.

After the walk, Li Zimo and Xiaodie returned to their respective courtyards and began to practice.

......

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the eaves of Yaoxiang Pavilion, Li Zimo slowly woke up from his practice.

Although he was reluctant to leave, he also understood that he was about to embark on a new journey.

Before leaving, he decided to prepare some gifts for Lu Xiaodie and Lu Xueqing, so he got up and went out, walking towards the market in Linyuan City.

Soon after, he came to a shop called "Quiet Weaving Workshop".

The store has a simple and elegant facade, and the interior is simple and cool, exuding an otherworldly atmosphere.

Li Zimo pushed open the door and walked into the store, only to see a woman with a cool yet gentle temperament arranging clothes on the shelves with her head down. She was Lin Yue.

Seeing this, Li Zimo habitually called out:

"Madam, I want to pick out some clothes for the girls in my family."

As soon as he said this, he realized that it might be a bit abrupt, because judging from Lin Yue's temperament and age, she didn't seem like the owner of this store.

When Lin Yue heard this name, her pretty face turned red. She looked up at Li Zimo and said softly:

"Sir, you've misunderstood. I'm not the boss's wife. I'm just helping to look after the store temporarily. You can call me Lin Yue. I wonder what kind of clothes you'd like to see?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zimo quickly apologized and adjusted his words:

"So it's Miss Lin Yue. My apologies. I'd like to pick out some clothes for the two women in my family. Could Miss Lin Yue recommend some for me?"

Lin Yue nodded gently, the blush on her cheeks had not yet completely faded, but her voice had returned to its cool and steady state:

"Of course, Mr. Li, please follow me. These are the dresses we have selected from our store. Most of them are in light and elegant colors, suitable for women of different ages."

She first gently stroked a light gauze dress as light as mist, which was embroidered with delicate orchid patterns and outlined with gold thread, making it look both elegant and somewhat mysterious.

"This is a brocade gauze dress, woven from the finest silk. It is as light as a cicada's wing, and wearing it feels like walking on clouds. The orchid embroidery is outlined with gold thread, which further highlights the woman's gentle and noble demeanor."

Then she turned aside and picked up a long gown with a black silk base and delicate silver threads inlaid on the edges.

"This is a dark-colored gown, tailored to fit the body, with flowing lines. Silver threads are used to outline intricate patterns on the black silk. Wearing it will make you look slender, and your steps will exude a calm and noble aura."

Then, Lin Yue pointed to a colorful brocade dress with many flowers.

"This skirt is called the 'Hundred Flowers in Full Bloom' brocade skirt. It is woven with colorful silk threads, and the pattern is lifelike, just like a hundred flowers blooming in spring. Wearing it will make you feel like you are in a sea of flowers, bright and charming, showing off your delicate and charming figure."

Finally, she gently picked up a moon-white double-breasted skirt embroidered with a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and there was a hint of barely perceptible shyness in her voice.

"This is a moon-white mandarin duck skirt. The moon-white color is fresh and elegant, and the mandarin duck embroidery symbolizes beauty. Wearing it will make you look gentle and charming, showing off a woman's tenderness and sweetness."

When introducing these ancient costumes, Lin Yue always kept a faint smile and blush on her face. Her voice was soft and rhythmic, making each piece of clothing seem to carry ancient stories and emotions, waiting for the encounter of the right person.

In the quaint shop, the lights flickered, illuminating Lin Yue's face, which was flushed with shyness.
