My family and I were just waking up to start our day in the field. I had made porridge and was going to go to the lake to get our water supply for the day while the rest of the family started their work.
On my way to fetch the water, I passed my lord and a knight making sure we were all doing our work. He asked me where I was going and made sure my family was going to work today.
My family and I worked from dawn to dusk making our living. Our lords and knights were coming through periodically, but we would never talk to them so we don't know why.
My husband, Tybalt, had to go into town after our long day of work to pay our taxes. We have to pay a big portion of the little amount we have for taxes, but there is no way around it.
By the time Tybalt had gotten home from paying taxes, I was already almost done making supper and getting the children ready for bed. Also, I had brought our donkey (our most valuable thing) inside so it did not get stolen or run away.
After a long day of work, we get to rest for a short time. However, we will have to be up before dusk tomorrow so that we can start our day and get out to the fields on time.
