Answer:

c. freed slaves returned to work for their former owners

Step-by-step explanation:

the sharecropping system was designed to recreate slavery but not exactly slavery. Sice the ex slaves didnt know anything other than the work their masters made them do, they had no choice but to go back and work for them.
