A semicolon separates two related independent clauses. There are two independent clauses in the sentence: "My parents are cleaning the house today" and "that means we must be expecting company." This means there should be a semicolon in the sentence. It would go after the word "house," because that is where the first clause ands and the second begins. Therefore, the answer is D. house.
