When will we ever be able to live in a house without our farm animals? The farming works are getting harder and harder. Prices are becoming more expensive as well.
Mom, I'm going to help dad and grandpa harvest the potatoes, wheat, barley, corn, and vegetables.
I will go to the market later
Son, get up, we have a lot of work today.

Being a servant is so tiring. I do not like my master. Even though life is a bit better now than before, but there are still so much difficult situations. Should I still have hope?
Why did you not do what I told you to do! You should be punished! I should have not trusted you!
You should still be punished!
She is so beautiful. I'm in love with her! Oh no, but I can't be in a relationship or marry because I'm a servant.
