She negotiated with the owner of the powdered milk shop, offering her labor in exchange for powdered milk. However, on the day of the settlement, the shop owner deceived her, denying ever making such an agreement because she was just a child.
She snatched the powdered milk and ran, only to be surrounded and beaten by a group of men who accused her of being a thief.
No one came to her aid.
