Upon seeing Chen Qiumei speak this way, Wen Xiuqing didn't have much to say, feeling as if people would think she was reluctant to share the meat.
After lunch, Gu Weimin secretly signaled to Chen Qiumei.
Chen Qiumei glanced at Gu Xiaobei and hesitated to say, "Xiaobei, your father and I have been on the road for several days and are quite tired. Is there somewhere we could rest?"
Gu Xiaobei looked at Chen Qiumei and asked nonchalantly, "Where is your luggage?"
Chen Qiumei was caught off guard. It was Gu Weimin who spoke up, "We got off the train this morning and, fearing that we might come here in vain, we rented a room at a nearby hotel and left our luggage there."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaobei wondered how much luggage they had brought. In front of Wen Xiuqing, it wouldn't be polite to ask too many questions. She said to Wen Xiuqing, "Mom, could you keep an eye on Mo Wang and Xiaopang? I'm going to take my parents to the residential compound for a rest."
