Madam Sheng was terrified, her face paling. She screamed repeatedly and waved her handkerchief in an attempt to scare away the horrible bees.

However, the bees seemed particularly interested in her. No matter how she tried to shoo them away, they wouldn't leave her alone, just like flies attracted to rotten meat.

The situation was even worse for Old Madam Sheng. She was already old and had difficulty moving around, and on top of that, she was thrown around by Sheng Wanwan's little magic and was completely disoriented. At this moment, she was powerless to resist these angry bees.

He could only lie on the ground and wave his arms wildly to scare away the bees.

"Ouch! It hurts so much!" Old Madam Sheng cried out in pain, tears streaming down her face. She screamed and desperately swatted at the bees on her body.

However, this not only did not help, but also further angered the bees.

They're even more energetic when they're hibernating...

The maids and nannies who had come with the three masters saw the scene before them and, despite their fear of bees, dutifully came to drive them away.

The bees were not so easily driven away; on the contrary, they stung even more fiercely.

These people screamed and cried out as they were stung. They tried to run away, but their legs were too weak to stand up.

They found it strange. Could it be that these bees were poisonous and could sting people so badly that they couldn't get up?

Screams and wails echoed through the garden, drawing the attention of the other servants of the general's mansion. They rushed to investigate, and gasped in horror at the sight of the horrific scene of everyone being swarmed by bees.

Some people tried to help shoo away the bees, but as soon as anyone got close to Madam Sheng and her two companions, the bees would immediately turn around and attack them.

Moreover, anyone who joins in will feel weak in their limbs and fall to the ground to be stung by the swarm of bees if they try to escape.

Now, no one dared to step forward. They could only watch helplessly as Old Madam Sheng and her entourage were stung by bees, crying and screaming in utter disarray.

Meanwhile, Sheng Wanwan, the instigator, stood by leisurely watching the spectacle. Her hands were on her hips, and her small face was full of smug and mocking smiles.

The commotion startled Chu Shi, and she brought Zhu Cui to the garden.

Just then, Sheng Wanwan was seen looking at a group of people on the ground with a smile on her face.

Chu shook her head and chuckled, then walked over to Sheng Wanwan and looked at her for a while.

Upon seeing that Old Madam Sheng, Second Madam Sheng, and Third Madam Sheng had all been stung and were rolling on the ground, a gloating smile flashed in Chu's eyes.

"Hey, what are you all doing? You've gotten into such a sorry state!"

Chu asked, feigning concern.

"Chu, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me get rid of these bees! Ouch, it hurts so much!"

When Madam Sheng saw Chu standing there watching the commotion with a smile, she was immediately furious.

She covered her head while shouting at people.

“Mother-in-law, it’s not that I don’t want to go up, but even if I did, I couldn’t drive them away! I think you and your two sisters-in-law might have offended some deity, right?”

Why are the bees only biting you and the people who came to help you chase them away?

This is really weird! Mother-in-law, I think you should think about what you just did. If you did something wrong, you should apologize, otherwise, I reckon these bees won't let you off the hook!

Chu reminded him with a smile.

"What nonsense are you talking about! How could I possibly offend a god!" Old Madam Sheng was even angrier when she saw Madam Chu standing there leisurely spouting useless words without coming forward to help.

She deeply respects gods and Buddhas; how could she possibly offend them?

"Oh? Otherwise, why would so many bees be attacking people! Mother-in-law, think about it, have you done something bad and been punished by heaven?"

The saying goes, "Heaven is watching what people do." Could it be that you did something that even Heaven disapproved of, which is why you've been punished? Why don't you try to repent? Apologize or something?

Chu said calmly.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What bad things could we possibly do?"

Madam Sheng was also unhappy.

They just wanted to teach Sheng Wanwan a lesson; how did they do anything heinous?

He suffered all this just for cursing Sheng Wanwan a few times?

Could it be that Sheng Wanwan is Heaven's favorite daughter?

Old Madam Sheng was also furious. She glared at Chu Shi and said, "Stop spreading rumors! Go upstairs and chase these bees away!"

Upon hearing what Madam Chu said, Madam Sheng's thoughts shifted.

Others assumed their weakness was due to bee stings, but she knew that she had already collapsed to the ground when she tried to kick Sheng Wanwan.

Then the swarm of bees attacked them. Could it be that they were attacked by bees because they bullied Sheng Wanwan?

She felt that regardless of whether it was true or not, she had to try, otherwise she would be in excruciating pain if she continued.

Thinking of this, she shouted:

"God! I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have hit Sheng Wanwan, I shouldn't have bullied the weak, I shouldn't have abused my power! Please, God, have mercy and forgive me! I promise I will never do it again!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Chu's eyes filled with coldness. She squatted down and whispered:

"Wanwan, did she hit you?"

"No, Mother, she doesn't have that ability!"

Sheng Wanwan smiled at Madam Chu, then muttered softly to the larger bee swarming around her:

"Honey, get rid of the bees around that woman who apologized!"

The bee that Sheng Wanwan called "Little Honey" seemed to really understand her words. It flapped its wings and made a "buzzing" sound, and the bees that were surrounding Madam Sheng immediately dispersed.
