How many peasants were in the peasants revolt?
Over 100,000.
What are the consequences for peasants if they disobeyed there lord?
A lot depended on time and place, but the serfs were not usually ordered to do things by the lord. Instead there was an officer called a reeve, who determined how the serfs should be organized and acted as a manager for the lord. On many manors, the reeve was elected by the serfs. The position of the serf is very much misunderstood today, possibly because of the influence of Hollywood and fiction. Serfs were not free because they were bound to the soil. But unlike slaves, they had rights that their lords could not take away from them, and among these rights were the right to live on the land, the right to farm the land, and a right to be protected. They were not allowed to move off the land without protection, but if they did so, they were regarded as free after a year. Part of the inducement for staying on the manor was the security it provided. There are links below.

What did the serfs do in the morning?
6:00 AM - Roosters would wake most villagers up. At this time, most peasants started they daily activities normally by dressing and eating breakfast. A peasant's breakfast consisted of mostly vegetables, water, fruits and bread. 7:00 AM - The castle's bells would ring (if any) and serfs were required to start work at this time.In winter, peasants were most likely to wake up until 8 AM. 8:00 AM - Work continued, There were not many interludes for serfs; in the other hand, free peasants; could have many breaks. 9:00 AM - Work for serfs continued; they were not allowed to drink or eat anything in the farms, but nevertheless; most of them managed to contraband goods such as water. Peasants would farm a lot as well, but serfs were the true workers. 10:00 AM - The first interlude for serfs. When a noble was generous, he'd let the serfs rest for up to half an hour at this time. Draconian nobles would impose rules against resting. 11:00 AM - Labor was at its peak. Peasants were required to work and work at this time. In the interim, nobles were usually riding their horses or taking care of business. Most nobles would live out of the work of their serfs. 12:00 AM - Serfs continued working. 1:00 PM - Serfs would be normally given a time-off at this time since the sun would burn them otherwise. Farms were very hot places in which the sun was strong enough to make very painful burns. Serfs usually died at an early age--we can deduce that cancer had a lot to do with that (but we can't be sure). 2:00 PM - Work at farms continued. Children were usually playing in the gardens or farming as well. Their mothers spent a great amount of time at home--preparing food, teaching their kids new knowledge and doing house-work. Nevertheless, a women could also be a serf; thus some of them worked many hours at the farms. 3:00 PM - Work continued. 4:00 PM - This was the official resting time. Nobles would normally have glorious feasts with more food than a serf would see in a month. Serfs usually ate bread, vegetables and water. Under good circumstances, they had meat (usually in holidays). 5:00 PM - Serfs were required to return to work. 6:00 PM - Work continued. 7:00 PM - Work for serfs continued. 8:00 PM - Labor usually finished for the day. Serfs were paid a very small amount of money; from which, they were required to pay a lot of taxes. 9:00 PM - Serf's dinner. 10:00 PM - Serfs would often go to sleep at this time. In the meantime, at the castle, nobles would be having another feast. Dinner was their favorite meal and castles were full of servants to provide nobles with whatever they wanted.

What Were The Wages in 1500s?
There were no "wages" exactly in the middle ages. Nobles were paid through the work of their serfs and peasants as well as taxes. Serfs were slaves so there were no wages. Peasants got to keep some of the food they grew so that was their wages. Monks weren't paid and the church was paid in taxes by the everyone. The king collected taxes from everyone. A guild apprentice wasn't paid because what he learned was considered payment. Merchants did sell items to people and there was a lot of barder going on as well. Money was very hard to come by.
