Halcyon Days at Taoyuan: Female Heart Event Choices Guide (Updated)

Halcyon Days at Taoyuan, BotanX, Chinese Farming Life Sim, Stardew Valley, Coral Island, Female Romance Guide, Heart Event, Long Xizhi

Welcome to your complete guide to the female heart events in Halcyon Days at Taoyuan. While tending your farm is rewarding, the game’s true pastoral romance lies in the bonds you build with the villagers.

Special heart events typically trigger once you reach to 2, 4, 6, 7, and 10 hearts with a character. You’ll need to meet certain requirements to trigger a heart event, such as going to the correct place at the right time and day. During a heart event, you’ll unlock your love interest’s personal stories, and based on your choice of responses, you will influence and cultivate your love story.

Note: This article is still a work in progress and will be updated with more information.

You’d never guess, but the idea of making a new hairpin for Muyue was my mother’s.“What? I really didn’t expect that.”“I knew it! How could a mother not care about her daughter?”
Maybe it was me… who, in my stubbornness to fight against her, chose to ignore all those kind gestures.“You did act a bit inappropriately.”“I don’t think it’s your fault.”
Heh. I really am a terrible elder sister…“Just be more caring towards your sisters from now on.”“You’re already doing great!”

I wasted your time. So sorry for that.“Watching you hang and dry the cloth is quite interesting.”“Chatting with you is quite interesting.”
You see, cloth is the foundation of any garment. No matter how exquisitely you sew later, the garment won’t be truly good if the cloth itself is subpar.“You’re so capable!”“It’s just a piece of clothing. Do you really need to put so much thought into it?”

My apologies, I was so engrossed that I didn’t notice you.“The melody is truly beautiful.”“The melody is beautiful. It is a pity that there is no audience to appreciate it.”

Tell me, if you can’t hold onto it in the end, isn’t it better not to have it at all?“The beauty of the journey is what matters most.”“Yeah, it all ends in emptiness anyway, why bother clinging to it?”
Then let me ask you this: if the people in your memories are all gone, would you still wish to keep those memories alone?“Of course! Cherishing these memories well is the least we can do for those who’ve left.”“If people are gone, memories just become painful shackles.”
