Everyone worked six days a week right up until the Victorian era (the "weekend" is a relatively new invention).
Serfs, who "belonged" to a landlord, would have spent up to six days week working in the landlord's fields or tending his animals. Villeins, who were free men, either worked a certain number of days and/or paid rent to the landlord and could work the rest of the time in their own fields.
Working on a Sunday in the Middle Ages was actually illegal, though dispensations were granted to some professions and during the harvest period.
It should also be remembered that several religious holidays were also obligatory rest days, such as Christmas, and there were far more celebrated in the mediaeval period than are today, although the exact dates observed varied sometimes from village to village. In fact, the word "holiday" comes from the root "holy day"!

How was it like being a villien in the Medieval times?
I think that a villen is a poor peasant who is ordered to do things the whole year by a lord who had taken over England after the Romans had left. In return of the work that the villiens had done, the lord gave each of the villiens a land to farm for themselves. Some people find these instructions fine for themselves but some peasants find these commands really disgraceful for their country and for themselves because they have no justice and it has no good for themselves. The lord just keeps makind the villiens working and doesn't give them a break at all.
