Why did the black plague improve ordinary peoples lives?

As many people died, there were less people around to take jobs. The freemen therefore got paid more so that they didn't stop working for the lord and lady. Life got worse for the villeins because the freemen, who were higher up in society than them, were paid more, so the villeins were paid less. If the villeins refused to work they would be severely prosecuted, and most likely were killed. In conclusion, life improved for the freedmen, because they were paid more. Life got worse for the villeins because they were paid considerably less, probably nothing at all.

A serf, on the other hand, is a virtual slave, being confined to a plot of land in return for protection and the right to work. Serfs are effectively the property of their lords. Villeins are renters tied to land, but are not slaves, and can leave with their lord's consent.
