scolding, disapproval, blame, reprimand

Any of these options would work. It is clear here that Ben is not as afraid of the physical punishment his father would dole out for his crime, but rather the verbal punishment. This often comes in the form of a scolding or reprimand. It shows that the father is disapproving of his son's actions, which is confirmed by the last sentence when it describes the father as "very much disturbed."

Slave women were expected to work in the fields with the men, not take care of the home life.

They were apportioned almost the same task given to men, not considering their gender. In Africa, woman's primary social role was that of being a mother (tending the kids and making meals in the home). In slavery, this aspect of African womanhood was debased. They were however treated a bit softly whenever they are pregnant, or have just given birth.
