"Ah...don't touch me, get out of here, get out of here..."
The desperate screams of the Minister's daughter were heard outside the carriage, scaring the girls in the carriage so much that their faces turned pale and they trembled.
"Sister Qiulan, what should we do? Those people won't come in again, right?" A young lady trembled and said.
Qiulan, the young lady who had first pushed the Minister's daughter, forced herself to remain calm as she pulled out a half-eaten cold steamed bun from her bosom and said, "Do you still have any buns? Bring them out. Those people's main goal is food."
Wait, wait, if they come again, we will throw all the buns out as far as we can."
"Can, can it be done?" A lady next to her looked worriedly at the cold steamed bun in her hand that she had just taken a few bites of.
"This is all we can do now. I just hope those officers and soldiers haven't given up on us."
Because of the disturbance caused by the Minister's daughter just now, everyone still had some steamed buns left.
Upon hearing this, everyone took the steamed buns in their hands and stared at the carriage door that might be opened at the next second, ready at any time.
They didn't dare to look at what was happening outside, they only heard the voice of the minister's daughter getting smaller and smaller.
"She, how is she? No, not at all, dead, dead!" a young lady couldn't help but say.
"Don't be distracted, pay attention to the front." Qiulan said nervously.
If the Minister's daughter really died, they would be the first target of those people. At this moment, their top priority is to protect themselves, rather than paying attention to that idiot who is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.
Outside the door, no more sounds were heard from the Minister's daughter. Then they heard the obscene voices of the refugees, "There are a few more inside, all beauties."
"To die beneath the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost. I won't survive if I continue to starve like this. I can enjoy this beautiful blessing before I die, even if I die with my eyes closed."
"Yeah, fuck it, let's go."
The next second, the door of the carriage was opened, and several dirty men with yellow teeth bared their faces and smiled obscenely, "My little beauties, here I come!" and rushed into the carriage.
"Throw it away quickly..." the lady named Qiulan shouted loudly and took the lead in throwing away the steamed bun in her hand.
Seeing this, the other girls also took quick action.
While the wretched men were stunned, six or seven big snow-white buns flew past their heads, sides, and eyes.
One man thought the girls were throwing something at them, so he quickly grabbed one and took a closer look. His eyes widened, "Mantou!"
He reacted and quickly covered his mouth, but unfortunately the "mantou" he just shouted was very loud and had already been heard clearly by the men next to him.
The others reacted and immediately rushed to grab it.
The man quickly bent down to protect the steamed bun, eating it in big mouthfuls while shouting, "There are still a lot of them over there, why do you have to take mine?"
Hearing this, the men remembered the white shadow that had just flown past them, and hurriedly turned around to grab other buns.
The first person who got the steamed bun quickly finished the bun in his hand and immediately joined the team that was grabbing the buns.
Rather than "dying under the peony flowers," they would rather not die.
The ladies in the carriage watched the people outside the carriage fighting over a few steamed buns, with their heads broken and bleeding. They felt mixed emotions, but they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, although the crisis was temporarily resolved, the steamed buns thrown out would eventually be eaten up.
None of them knew how to drive a carriage, and they didn't dare to get off the carriage alone and go around to the front room to drive the carriage. If no one came to rescue them, they would die sooner or later.
Several people hugged each other nervously, huddled in the innermost part of the carriage, shivering and looking at the door, praying in their hearts that someone would come to rescue them.
"If I can be saved this time, I will never complain about steamed buns being bad again." The youngest girl choked up.
Qiulan hugged her tightly and said, "Don't be afraid, someone will come to save us." But even she herself didn't quite believe what she said.
Will anyone really come to rescue them?
There were only a few steamed buns, but there were so many refugees, and soon the melee for the steamed buns outside the carriage ended.
They had been paying attention to the movement and heard the chaotic footsteps coming towards the carriage again.
Soon, the group of men from before lifted the carriage curtain again. This time they were even dirtier than before. Their bodies were covered with mud, grass, and blood. The unpleasant smell was so nauseating that even at the door of the carriage, people felt sick.
Perhaps because they had eaten the steamed buns, they were more energetic than before, but this also meant that they might die a more miserable death.
In a flash, the leading man got on the carriage and walked towards them.
Qiulan is the oldest here, so she has always protected the other ladies and stayed at the outside.
Seeing that the man's dirty hands were about to touch her, she could even see the dirt between his fingernails, on his skin, and the remnants of the steamed bun he had just eaten between his teeth.
Surrounded by the disgusting stench, Qiulan finally closed her eyes in despair.
It's over, no one will come to save them.
She was trembling all over, ready to accept the judgment of fate, but after waiting for a long time, to her surprise, the expected touch did not come.
But she heard a scream of "Ah..." and when she opened her eyes, she saw that evil, disgusting face with yellow teeth bared, moving further and further away from her with a ferocious look on its face.
The refugees on the carriage were pulled down by the officers and soldiers who had just squeezed in with great difficulty, and they were saved.
