Spring 10th of the first year

You open your eyes and find that the surroundings are suddenly much more spacious, and the fireplace and fish tank are nowhere to be seen, as if you were carried into a showroom in the middle of the night, bed and all.

...Wait, could it really be Robin who transported you to this location? No wonder she's the legendary Stardew Valley woman who can teleport farm buildings in an instant.

The sudden increase in size of the house makes you feel uncomfortable, and you've surprisingly considered decorating. But after thinking about it carefully, you're still too lazy to bother. You'll build the farm first and then worry about interior design. You don't even have a roommate yet; you're out working every morning. Who would enjoy the decor?

Hmm, if you put it that way...

You ask those in the live stream who have access to search engines: "When is Mani going to send me the cat?"

Oh, you finally remembered!

[And that axe, it's been upgraded for days! If you don't go get it soon, the bald guy might throw it into the furnace and melt it down!]

[1000 gold! Earn 1000 gold and get a cat delivered to your door! Why do you only spend money and not want to earn any? (pointing and gesturing)]

What kind of cat did you choose this time?

You tried to recall, then said uncertainly, "It should be an orange cat? It's definitely not a dog. Die-hard cat lovers will never choose dogs."

Only 1000 gold? That's easy. Just throw a set of beer into your inventory box as soon as you leave, then roll up your sleeves and head out to pull up radishes... or gather parsnip.

During the initial clearing period, Stardew Valley farmers always have endless work to do, so busy they wish they could have speed buffs welded onto their bodies. Fortunately, from today onwards, you'll have sprinklers to help with watering, greatly reducing your burden.

You didn't set up 40 sprinklers all at once, because that would mean even if you didn't dig crooked holes, you'd still have to dig a full 160 holes, and then you'd have to put seeds in those 160 holes, otherwise you'd be "surprised" to find that some of the holes had disappeared tomorrow, and you'd have to constantly switch hoes to dig the ground and take out watering cans to catch up... Wow, what a huge workload.

After you finished, you drank a cup of coffee and ran towards the blacksmith's shop.

As you approach the bridge, you see a familiar figure standing under a tree. He sees you too and immediately flashes a bright smile.

"Oh—hey, you're the new guy, right? You look pretty energetic! I'm Yuji Itadori. Um… if it's on your way, could you please take this to Otsuko?" Yuji Itadori pulled a snail out of his rugby ball and looked at you with the pleading gaze of a big dog.

Tiger is really awesome!

Wait a minute, where did the snail come from? Following Leah's paintbrush, Alex's football has also fallen victim to this?!

[Spring 10 is Vincent's birthday!]

[Birthday Gift GET]

On Wednesday afternoon, the two kids in town would be reading at the museum with Penny, and it would be convenient for them to pick up the bronze axe from the blacksmith's shop. Of course, even if it weren't on their way, you would still agree to help, since this was a "special mission" given to you face-to-face.

When you enter the museum, the first person you see is Moth of the Way.

Compared to others who have to follow a schedule, he is clearly more constrained, standing behind the museum counter every day from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, waiting for you to donate items and then handing out rewards.

But at this moment, the plot allows him to briefly leave his fixed position and introduce you to the current state of the museum.

"The previous museum director took all the collections and used their power to break through the constraints of this space, but how exactly he did it... at least, the collection had to be completed first, and the same conditions had to be met."

"If you find any scattered cursed artifacts outside, please bring them here, and I will seal them temporarily."

With all the collectibles gathered, another clue leads to a point outside the game world.

After the story ends, you look at Masamichi Yagami, who is standing by the counter intently poking at the cursed corpse, and suddenly sigh.

Collecting artifacts requires breaking open a large number of crystal spheres. Even if you can buy ore from the blacksmith, you'll probably still have to go mining frequently. The one or two you occasionally get from fishing treasure chests and ancient spots are simply not enough.

With mixed feelings, you walk into the book section and see Fushiguro Megumi, Otoko Yuta, and Kimoto Rika sitting around a table reading.

"Yuta!" The little girl Rika called out to her companion in a whisper, and quietly took out a paper crane folded from a book page from under the table, and "flew" it around the edge of the table toward Yuta Otsukoshi.

Yi Gu You hesitated for a moment, but couldn't resist reaching out to take it, only to be caught red-handed by Fushiguro Megumi.

"Rika, concentrate." Fushiguro said helplessly, taking the book that had been torn quite thin from Rika's hand and putting it on the bookshelf.

The origami crane broke free from Otsuki Yuta's grasp, wobbled as it flew back, unfolded itself along the creases, and transformed back into a single cardboard sheet to return to the book.

Paper frogs, paper fish, paper dogs... also returned to the shelves along with the books, as if they were undergoing a grand migration from the desk and floor to the bookshelf.

Rika Kimoto kicked the table leg in dissatisfaction, but did not object. Instead, she picked up another book and started reading again.

Witnessing all this, you feel that even with designated activity areas and routes, their lives seem quite interesting, at least more leisurely than your farm work.

You walk over and hand over the birthday present from Hisahito Itsuki to Yuta Otsuki.

In Stardew Valley, the way you determine your affinity level is very straightforward. Giving someone a gift they like will definitely increase your affinity level, even if the gift is given on behalf of someone else.

You're new here and have low affinity with everyone, so you're not sure if this change will lead to genuine friendship or even love—wait, wait, isn't it strange enough to even have that thought? They're just modified villagers; it's normal for their affinity to increase according to the game mechanics!

Besides the curator and the study group, a brown-haired girl was standing in front of the bookshelves, idly flipping through a book, yawning almost every few lines she read.

Since you're already here, you walk over and strike up a conversation with her: "Good afternoon, Miss Ieiri."

She turned to the next page of her book, and after a long while, looked up at you: "Please don't mind if I didn't reply right away. I didn't sleep much last night [yawn]"

You immediately said it was okay, then casually gave her a gift, and turned to leave the museum.

While in Stardew Valley, sweat drips onto the soil. Rather than chatting and giving gifts, the most important thing right now is to hurry back and plant the remaining spring crop seeds.

"I can't let 99888777 corrupt my love for farming," you said as you ran to the farm while making the most of your time to interact with the live stream: "But after I finish today's work, I'll start wandering around tomorrow and the day after. Who would you like to see me pursue first?"

[What?! Most of the farm is still overgrown wasteland, and they dare to wander around like that?!]

[Rejected. They should just stick to farming. The one-eyed cat won't let them play with the level 3 farm owners.]

[The mere mention of iivv makes me rebellious, haha! We have to be together, we have to be together! Let's go find Pierre to wholesale bouquets and fill half of Stardew Valley with your boyfriends and girlfriends, turning our once-deserted farms into a sea of ​​people!!!]

Great idea, looking forward to it!

You looked embarrassed and said, "Don't be silly, how can I face Moth like this? I don't want to get punched by the museum director!"

Exactly! Besides, there are still some innocent young people in town!

The idea of ​​"pure love for children" sounds rather perverse.

[Focus error]

All I care about is whether I can be Hui's bride.

Which type of bride are you referring to?

Children make choices; adults want it all.

You were a little embarrassed by the increasingly outrageous claims from netizens, so you quickly clarified: "No, that won't work. His affection level doesn't have a single icon, so he can't get married!"

【You with rabbit feet——】

[It's all exposed, the boy understands instantly]

【Okay, then let's go and win over both Yojiro and Shoko. If we're going to date, let's date them for the whole grade】

Chasing after one grade is the same as chasing after one school, so I want them all!

That's right, that's right.

Don't forget the Songstress An (Devil's Whisper)

[Iwao-hime: I resolutely refuse to live under the same roof as Gojo Satoru]

You return to Lucky Star Farm, take out all the spring seeds of various varieties that you bought on your first day in Stardew Valley from the wooden box, and then alternately use an axe, pickaxe, and sickle to clear the area and dig holes to put the seeds in... In short, you are busy until night falls, doing nothing but planting, and finally you close the chicken coop door and go back to sleep.

I'm so tired, I feel completely drained. Sometimes I really need online friends to help me out, or even a tractor mod would be great!
