the answer is B

Peter implies that these lines that the Stockman's spend too much on food.

Option b

Explanation:

Peter was invited for the dinner but he denied the invite stating that Hot Meat will not suit his Digestion at night and he would stick to his normal routine. He implies that Hot Meat should not be served at night as it is too expensive and would not get digested easily.

However Katherine asks him not to think they are spending lavishly on dinner, Peter politely objects it and tells her he would never think like that and that too about her.
