The correct response is: Peasants left manors for towns where they could find work.

The growth of trade and industry drew people away from the feudal manors, leading to a decline in the feudal system as peasants sought better economic opportunities in towns and cities. This migration contributed to the weakening of the traditional feudal relationships and power structures.
