Mrs. Gao was a personal attendant; if she were not competent, she wouldn't have been chosen by Yao Mengxian's birth mother back in the day.
She had already caught the look in that man's eyes and wanted to wait until the room was almost tidied up to report to Gu Chengyu. She always felt that the man's gaze was not one of mere curiosity, there was malice, and she needed to warn Mr. Gu.
Gu Chengyu watched as Yao Mengxian and the others entered the room, then led Ming Mo and the others into the side room of the main house. The room was bare, with only a square table and a kang bed beside it. It seemed to be a guest room at the village chief's house—it was dust-free, apparently just cleaned not long ago.
Without needing instructions, Ming Mo and the others busied themselves, wiping down the room before placing their items in order.
