If it weren't for the old master being there, who took pity on the eldest son and brought him to his side, he might have been bullied to death long ago.
The reason why the second son targeted the eldest son was not without reason. After all, they were both legitimate sons, and the right to inherit the Marquis's mansion could only be chosen from the two of them.
The eldest son's father took a liking to the second son and wanted to pass the inheritance to him.
The old master favored the eldest son, after all, he was the legitimate heir of the Xiao family, while the second son was merely someone who had been promoted to the position of legitimate heir.
Since they couldn't reach a conclusion after discussing it for a long time, they finally decided to use this 60th birthday as an opportunity.
The birthday celebration will last for two days, one day each for the two individuals. As long as they can satisfy the old master and all the guests attending the banquet in every aspect, they can officially become the heirs of the Xiao family.

Zhiyin looked at him and could only sigh. After all, he had already come and received the money, so he couldn't just leave, could he?
"Alright, tell me what your grandfather likes to eat? I'll start preparing it."
"Okay, don't worry, there will be a generous reward after it's done, and I'll cover all your expenses during this period."
"Please feel free to ask if you need anything, and I will do my best to meet your needs."
The eldest son generously waved his hand and took on everything.
"Alright!"
Seeing his sincerity and confidence in his skills, Zhiyin, remembering the Second Young Master's disdainful attitude, wanted to slap him in the face and teach him that there are always people more skilled than oneself. So she immediately nodded.
