maintain the lord’s estate.

Peasants (serfs) were required to work the lord’s land and perform labor and upkeep on the manor (fields, buildings, roads). Taking an oath of loyalty or overseeing vassals were duties of vassals/knights or the lord’s officials; caring for children was a household duty, not a general peasant role.
