	Everyday	Oh, you must be the son from the farm. ...What, the grandson? You've grown so much I didn't recognize you.
	Everyday	Life has its ups and downs. Sha, sha, sha.
	Everyday	My son is a buyer. Have you met him?
	Everyday	We live on vegetables we grow.
	Everyday	People need to keep an even keel. I know because I've lived so long.
	Everyday	But failure is also necessary in life. Those who overcome failures grow stronger.
	Everyday	Well, when you're young you've got the chance to do things over. It may be OK to go to extremes, but try to maintain moderation.
	Everyday	Don't worry your parents. Well, you can do anything, but staying healthy is the best.
	Everyday	You're of a marriageable age. You must have one or two sweethearts. If you've got any problems with love, just leave it to me.
	Everyday	You know, they call me the ”Matchmaker” in this village.
	Everyday	It's my little hobby to smooth out the ruffles between boys and girls.
	Everyday	You're very nice to May. Thank you.
	Everyday	My granddaughter is just like me when I was a child. She'll be a beauty in another 10 years.
	Everyday	If you don't have a sweetheart, it's either because you haven't met the right girl or you don't have room in your heart yet.
	Everyday	There are many ways to attract girls, but first you need to be honest.
	Everyday	To win a girl, go see her and say you want to talk. Give her gifts to light up her face. It's very easy.
	Everyday	Relationships don't blossom easily. Everybody has a favorite gift, and you mustn't be lazy with your job. There's lots to think about.
	???	The old man in the Potion Shop will be happy when you bring this to him.
	Give Eggplant	Oh, thank you. It's my favorite. Let me teach you a good eggplant recipe. Eggplants taste so good in the fall.
	Recipe Received	Got the ”Eggplant with Miso Paste” recipe!
	Everyday	Go home soon. Your body is a precious asset.
	Everyday	Oh, my, you got it.
	Everyday	All life is study, study! Gain lots of experiences.
	Everyday	It's also important to experience love when you're young.
	Everyday	Falling in love is one of life's most important experiences. There's no way to measure how you learn from love. I think it's more important than studying at school.
	Everyday	You can learn many things from love, such as consideration and self-control, how to pluck up your courage and how to take care of others.
	Everyday	There are a lot of pleasures in the world. But I think there is no greater pleasure than love.
	Player Has Child	Do you interact with your child? Don't leave it all up to your wife just because you're busy.
	Player Has Child	How is your baby? Cute? Spend time with your child while he's young. Otherwise, he won't become attached to you.
	Everyday	You may have many girlfriends. But you'll have to choose just one someday.
	Everyday	I can understand that you want to be liked by everybody. But if you're nice to everyone, how will your sweetheart notice your feelings?
	Everyday	Girls shine when they are with their favorite boys. It makes me happy to see.
	Everyday	Well, working all the time is not exactly a bad thing, but...
	Rainy Day	It's better to stay indoors on such a day.
	Typhoon Yesterday	That was a terrible typhoon. Our roof sprung a leak.
	Player Gets Married	You're in high spirits. Now that you're the head of a family, you've taken on a sturdier look.
	Player Gets Married	Hey, sonny. Make me a baby soon. I want to see your child before I'm gone.
	Player Gets Married	Don't worry. I'll be there for the baby.
	Everyday	I'm a respectable midwife, though I may not look it. You know, I've delivered all the young people in this village.
	Everyday	You've become a real man now. When I first met you it didn't seem that way.
	Player Gets Married	In the old days, people used to say, ”Don't let your daughter-in-law eat fall eggplants”. Wives were treated so badly. But you must take care of your wife now.
	Show Dog	Is this your grandpa's dog? It looks just like him.
	Give Liked Gift	Thank you. But you should bring it to a young girl, not me.
	Give Disliked Gift	Stop that! You bad kid!
	Show Blue Feather	A blue feather... You're finally going to propose. Good luck!
	Player Has Child	Children are good... They ease your spirits and give you reason to live.
	Give Neutral Gift	Thank you.
	???	Unfortunately, I don't know if it's valuable.
	Snow Day	It's so cold. It's really snowing a lot.
	Snow Day	Only kids and dogs are happy when it snows.
