Answer:

C.They had less work than older enslaved people

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why C, is the answer is because if you read the passage carefully it clearly stated that he was not old enough to work in the field, and has given other jobs like driven the cows in the evening, keeping the fowls out of the garden, keeping the garden clean and running errands for his masters daughter. It also says he has a "great deal of leisure of time". So concluding my works when he was young he had a less work than the older slaves.
