So, Gu Jiu came to the private room upstairs and found a rattan chair to lie down.
He asked the shopkeeper to warm up a pot of wine again. Looking at the snow outside and the particularly obedient Xiaohui in the stable, he felt a little strange.
He had been in the academy for almost a year, and he was not eager to go home.
Although he has his father whom he cares about, and Gu Xiaoxiao whom he cares about at home.
Seeing this man and woman arguing so disharmoniously, he couldn't help but think of something.
That is, although his parents love to quarrel and his mother hits him hard, she always knows the severity of the blow and is truly a good wife.
In this world, because women are too superior and men are too humble, it is considered good if he can do what his mother did.
Like this young couple, the woman is out flirting with other men every day, and the man is angry at home, but he can do nothing about it. In the end, he becomes a shrew. This is really a problem.
Gu Jiu didn't want to, and even felt that it was impossible to achieve gender equality in this world, but he felt that the status of men should still be slightly improved.
Because men have a very low status, it is less likely for love to arise. Without love, the world will be disharmonious.
Especially for those cultivation sects that do not accept male disciples, men are simply tools in the eyes of Jane and others.
It is obvious that the eldest sister Gu Ningshuang is going to take this path.
Xiaoxiao and she are from the same sect, so there’s no problem?
Will he become the second Gu Ningshuang after returning home?
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Jiu couldn't help but take another sip of wine.
He rarely feels sad about spring, but today he felt clear-headed.
Because of his discovery, he began to care about people.
Gu Jiu, who is cold-hearted by nature, has become less and less cold-hearted since he started to care about his younger sister Gu Xiaoxiao.
At this time, in addition to Gu Xiaoxiao and his father, there are now new names on his list - Xiaoqi and Su Ying.
Gu Jiu wondered if it was because he had refused to communicate with the world in the past that he became so cold and indifferent.
And now that he has gradually opened his heart, has he changed?
Gu Jiu didn’t know whether this was a good thing or not. It was said that the kind were invincible, but he felt that the ruthless were even more invincible.
The more things a person cares about, the greater the constraints will be and the more weaknesses he will have. The less things a person cares about, the smaller the weaknesses will be.
Looking at the snow outside the window stopping and the cold fog dissipating a little, Gu Jiu felt that it was time for him to leave.
I have to rush home today no matter what. Even if Xiaoxiao hasn't come back yet, I should have a good drink with my father.
After thinking of this, Gu Jiu's heart warmed up again.
He thinks there is nothing wrong with having someone who cares about him.
Those people are like the warm lights in your home on a cold night, waiting for you. No matter how lonely or desolate you are, as long as there are these lights, they will always guide you to find the direction forward.
That direction is home.

Chapter 46 Why Don’t You Wear It? (First Update)
Gu Jiu, who had just given the first lesson in his life, felt a little tired because he was clearly a little excited when facing the unreliable couple, and excitement often consumes energy.
Lazy Gu Jiu never thought that he would do this.
When Xiao Qi wanted to be his junior sister, Gu Jiu immediately and sternly refused because being a senior brother meant responsibilities and it was hard work, and being a junior sister was not as fun as being a senior sister.
But today he couldn't help but want to teach the couple a lesson because their performance today was a bit shocking.
Especially the way the young man raised his index finger when he was throwing a tantrum, which seemed normal to others, but was truly poisonous in his eyes.
After so many years in this world, Gu Jiu's core values haven't changed at all. Ahem, it seems that one thing has changed...
Having stayed at home for so long, perhaps influenced by him or something else, Gu Xing and Gu Lei had developed a bit of the "femininity" of this world. Gu Xiaoxiao's behavior was criticized by her mother from time to time as "less and less like a girl."
After arriving at Qingliu Academy, Su Ying's thoughts already had the rudiments of gender equality, so he found her the most pleasing to the eye. However, Xiao Qi was young, so he didn't treat her as an adult at all. Sometimes, her "feminism" was cute in his eyes.
Today, after the otaku came out and entered this chaotic world, Gu Jiu's three views were once again "destroyed", so he educated the other party and vented his feelings.
A couple without love, especially if they have some money, can have quite terrible destructive energy.
But looking back now, Gu Jiu felt that he had acted too recklessly and discovered that he was indeed not cut out to be a teacher.
He concluded that he was suited to being a physical education teacher who could develop others' physical potential.
Half an hour later, the sky became even darker.
Although the snow had stopped and the extremely freezing fog had gradually dissipated, the sky was still filled with thick leaden clouds, giving people a feeling of extreme cold.
In this icy and snowy place, on this snow-covered path, it would be difficult to meet anyone.
But not long after, Gu Jiu met someone.
It was beside a small path, and several men and women dressed as villagers were worshiping a stone statue on the roadside.
This stone statue looks very old. Although it is a human figure sitting cross-legged, it is missing arms and legs, making it look a bit eerie.
Gu Jiu took a look and found that the stone statue had a blurry face and even the gender characteristics were not prominent, making it impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
Gu Jiu rode past on a donkey, and the villagers who were paying homage didn't even look at him, as if the stone statue in front of them was the most beautiful scenery.
Gu Jiu discovered that during the period before the New Year, worship was quite common, and he saw it happening everywhere along the way.
What surprised him was that the objects of worship were different in each of the four times of worship.
Although these places are not far away, people’s beliefs are so diverse.
Gu Jiu heard from Su Ying that in these remote places far away from the cultivation sects, the people believe in wild gods, or desolate gods.
Sometimes one village believes in one thing, while the village next door believes in something else. In some villages, every household even believes in a different god.
These gods are naturally strange and bizarre, and some can even be said to be ugly and terrifying, but they have all become the beliefs of these remote people.
At dusk, Gu Jiu relied on the map and Xiao Hui's intelligence to approach Niujia Village, which he had passed by in the coffin before.
Ten miles away from Niujia Village, there is a tree, a big tree.
Even though it is surrounded by snow, the crown of this tree is still dark blue, which is particularly eye-catching, so many villagers believe it is a sacred tree.
Even though it was almost nightfall, there were still a dozen villagers worshipping under the tree.
These villagers are naturally not only from Niujia Village, but also include people from other nearby villages who came to pay their respects.
When Gu Jiu looked at the tree and the villagers who were worshipping it, he didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that they were the same as the villagers who were worshipping it he had met before.
It was not until he approached the tree and saw its branches full of pairs of embroidered shoes that he became alert.
These embroidered shoes were hung densely on the tree, and when they swayed in the wind, they looked like countless corpses hanging on the tree, which made people's scalp tingle.
When Gu Jiu saw these embroidered shoes, the first thing he thought of was the dead village chief Niu, and then he thought of the ghost face show.
When he saw the true appearance of the tree, Gu Jiu suddenly felt that the villagers who were worshipping it were all sick.
Why would people worship such a strange tree? Don't you find it strange?
At this time, Gu Jiu stopped and did not let Xiao Hui continue moving forward.
When Xiao Hui saw the tree, he showed a suppressed and panicked look.
It didn't calm down until Gu Jiu touched its head.
All the villagers knelt down on the cold mud, which was considered pious in this cold winter, but the tree kept swaying in the wind and did not respond to them.
There was no response, and the villagers just knelt there, and no one stood up.
Just when Gu Jiu was losing his patience, a pair of embroidered shoes fell from above with a snap.
When the villagers saw the shoes, they rushed over like crazy.
In the end, the shoes were snatched away by a female villager who was the strongest and had eyes wide open.
She held the shoes tightly, her eyes full of vigilance and excitement.
Soon, the villagers who didn't get shoes returned home.
When the female farmer who grabbed the shoes passed by Gu Jiu, Gu Jiu reminded her, "Sister, you can't wear these shoes."
When the female farmer saw Gu Jiu, she immediately held her shoes tighter, as if she was afraid that Gu Jiu would snatch them away from her.
Gu Jiu felt that there was something mentally wrong with this woman.
Dadada, Xiao Hui reluctantly carried Gu Jiu to the tree.
The trees are densely covered with embroidered shoes. Even in such weather and environment, they still look extremely bright, as if they were new, which makes people's scalps tingle.
At this moment, Xiao Hui suddenly let out a panicked "bleating" sound and retreated several steps.
At some point, a nun walked out from behind the tree.
The nun appeared very abruptly. I don’t know if she had been hiding behind the tree or for some other reason, but she always gave Xiao Hui the illusion that she had walked out of the tree.
On the other hand, Gu Jiu's expression was much calmer, as if he had anticipated such a situation.
The nun bowed to Gu Jiu and said, "Daoyou, you broke the rules a bit just now."
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What rules?"
"I see that you, a man, have entered the body refining realm. I guess you are practicing in some sect. Didn't your master and elders tell you that there are some things you cannot interfere in?" The nun spoke slowly, giving people a gloomy feeling.
Gu Jiu said: "I want to know what will happen to the villagers who put on those shoes?"
The nun grinned and said, "What else can I do? I wish you good health and peace every year."
Gu Jiu looked at the green cloth shoes on the nun's feet and asked, "Then why don't you wear them?"
New book "My Unfamiliar Girlfriend"
Introduction: As a demon king, I once visited the deepest part of hell, chatting and laughing with the Lord of Hell. I also visited the top of heaven, overlooking the entire world. But all of this is in the past. I returned to Earth and became a glorious teacher. I lived a stable life with a girlfriend but no house. Until one day, a piece of slime appeared on my bed...
Chapter 47: Green Shoes for Red Shoes (Part )
After hearing Gu Jiu's words, the nun's face suddenly became stern and she asked, "Sir, are you sure you want me to wear it?"
Gu Jiu nodded with an indifferent look on his face.
The nun grinned and said, "Sir, do you know what 'changing blue shoes for red shoes' means?"
Gu Jiu shook his head and said, "I don't understand, that's why I asked you to wear it."
"I've seen many young girls who think they are so high and mighty just because they learned some cat claw kung fu, but I've never seen a boy like this. What a pity." As she spoke, the nun stretched out her hand and a pair of embroidered shoes fell off.
Gu Jiu pretended not to understand and said, "What a pity?"
"It's a pity, sir, that you insist on forcing me to change into red shoes."
At this time, the nun had taken off her green cloth shoes, revealing a pair of white feet, and then put on a pair of brand new embroidered shoes.
When she said this, her tone was relatively soft, but it carried a sinister ghostly meaning.
Xiao Hui was already making a series of restless bleating sounds, but Gu Jiu was still sitting on it, stroking its head comfortably.
Xiao Hui, sensing Gu Jiu's presence, quieted down again.
"Sir, I have changed my shoes. Do they look good?" The nun was wearing a plain blue dress, but now she was wearing a pair of brightly embroidered shoes. With her half-smiling face as she stood under the shade of the tree, it was really a bit scary.
Gu Jiu said calmly: "She has an average face, and whatever she wears looks average."
The nun didn't get angry. Instead, she bared her white teeth and said, "I will tell you now, sir, what it means to exchange the blue shoes for the red shoes."
At this time, the nun walked towards Gu Jiu.
She didn't walk fast, and her clothes fluttered in the cold wind, making her look like an empty shell.
Gu Jiu was riding on the donkey, stroking Xiao Hui's head with a calm expression.
After a few breaths, the nun stood in front of Gu Jiu, raised her head slightly, and looked at Gu Jiu on the donkey's back.
From this angle, Gu Jiu discovered that the skin on the other person's face was loose, like a layer of paper stuck on it, and it was terribly pale.
Gu Jiu also looked at her and said, "My aunt told me that I shouldn't talk at this time and should leave. Because I can see that you are very angry, Master."
As he said this, he patted Xiao Hui's head and motioned him to move forward.
Xiao Hui had already closed his eyes out of fear, and walked forward with his legs raised stiffly.
