Life on the feudal manor was very different from today. The women would stay home with the children, do the house chores and feed the animals. She would also gather food from the garden. Their house, I'M NOT KIDDING, were made of dried cow dung and some hay. So it was very easy for robbers to dig. It was usually a one bedroom house. The kitchen the beds and everything else was in that room. It was very tiny. And stinky because the pigs and all the other animals would live inside that tiny space. Talk about gross. Also the men would work the fields and if you were old enough, we're not talking about 15 we're talking younger, then you'd go and help your father. If you were lucky enough to be born in a noble or monarch family you'd have much more luxuries and live in a great castle. The difference between serfs, the ones who worked the manor, and peasants was that serfs had to work all day and in exchange they'd receive protection. But they were not allowed to marry unless given permission by the lord of the manor. Unlike serfs peasants were free and weren't guaranteed protection or anything. So some of them would rent a little house on a manor. For a period of time. HARSH!
