My father and uncle were high-ranked, stubborn and irritable, and after their relationship was stiff, few people dared to persuade us, so our relationship with my uncle's family never improved. The last thing in this world is the villain. Although no one persuaded them, there were many people who sowed discord and fanned the flames. Over time, the brotherly relationship, which had not improved, showed a tendency to deteriorate.

When we separated, our family got three old houses to the north, and my uncle's family got four new houses to the south that my father had built. According to tradition, the south is the front and the north is the back. So, depending on the geographical location, we call our uncle's house the front family, while they call our family the back head family.

Three old houses and four new houses are across the road. The road here is the main road in our village. The reason why the four new houses are in a good location is because the new houses face the creek and are backed by the main road. Although our family's three old houses are also on the side of the road, they are still quite far from the main road, estimated to be more than 100 meters.

This may be a matter of historical legacy. At that time, when my grandfather presided over the division of the family, as an elder, he insisted on dividing the field between my family and the main road into two parts, one for our family and one for my uncle's family. Grandpa's stupid partiality became the source of further deterioration in the relationship between our family and my uncle's family.

It is precisely because the field is divided into two and belongs to whoever is close to the house, so if we want to walk from the door of the house to the main road, we have to pass through the field of the uncle's house. To put it simply, part of the path leading to the main road in front of my house is occupied by my uncle's field.

I don't know what kind of villain it was, I don't know why my uncle and aunt at that time were confused, but one day, my uncle and aunt actually cut off the path that our family walked on their field. It is called "it is their family's field." The implication is that our family has no right to walk through their fields.

What is a choke point? The path in front of our house is. Without this path, would it be impossible for our family to fly to the main road if they want to go out?

This move by the uncle's family became the fuse for the overall deterioration of the already rigid relationship between the two families. When he heard the news, his father fought with his uncle over the matter of the throat grape. At that time, I was going to school outside the home, and the specifics were not very clear. Later, I heard that my father and uncle had copied the guy at that time, and it seemed that my father had a slight upper hand. On that occasion, both my father and uncle excelled. But, I think, they are brothers after all, after all, blood is thicker than water, no matter how angry they are, they still maintain a sense of sanity. Otherwise, with the fiery temper of the father and uncle, even if they don't cause death, they will inevitably fight to lose both (seriously injured). Although it was hung up, the good thing was that it was all skin trauma. It's just that this fight between my father and uncle must have made the little people who were provoking behind them laugh.

After a fierce fight, both father and uncle calmed down. My father knew that this matter had to be solved anyway, because we had to walk in and out of our house! With their father's strong push, the two brothers finally sat down and negotiated a peaceful solution. In view of his uncle's insistence on "you are walking on our family's field", my father finally came up with a compromise method of exchanging land for road. Of course, the uncle is absolutely embarrassed that he is really not accommodating at all. Even if he is not a brother, if he "neither lets you go nor changes with you", he can't say it.

Of course, such "peace talks" were not all smooth sailing. Because, the villain behind him began to make a fuss again. These despicable fellows are most happy to see the big quarrel between the brothers. Accordingly, some people came up with advice: first, that no other fields should be moved, except for those who made roads; Second, if you can't ask for other fields, if you want to change them, you will exchange them with the fields in front of their house (referring to my house). What they mean is that in this way, my uncle's family will not only be able to contain our family's fields, but will "invade" us more, so that if there is another conflict in the future, we will be able to grasp more initiative. The angry uncle didn't care about his family, and accepted this vicious plan without thinking.

In the end, in order to have a way out, my father had to reluctantly accept this harsh request from his uncle. Of course, the father was quite shrewd, and after negotiating mutually acceptable terms, he wrote these conditions clearly in black and white with a few respected people in the village as witnesses, and then both parties signed, and finally handed over the part of the land they exchanged in public. In order to get in and out of the choke point, my father had to be cautious. The so-called rhetoric is unfounded. After such a formal replacement, even if the uncle wants to regret it, he will never be able to pull his face.

My father's watertight way of doing things is also something I have always admired deeply.

This time, the fight under the instigation of the villain finally made the brothers completely turn against each other. This behavior of the uncle completely broke the father's heart. They are no ordinary brothers, and it can be said that the father has taken on half of the responsibility of taking care of the young uncle instead of the grandfather. My father is my uncle's older brother, but in a way, I resemble my father.

The only one who nagged about how to take care of his uncle was his mother. My father didn't say anything about it, and all my father emphasized was the road. In the words of his father, let alone brothers, even if it is an ordinary relationship between neighbors before and after, people will never do the immoral act of cutting the throat of others. There is a basis for what my father said. Because, the neighbors to the west of our house are in the same situation as our family and my uncle's house. Half of the fields in front of their house are the neighbor's house in front of them. But until the family moved out, the neighbors in front of them had not acted viciously in blocking the road. In the words of the neighbor in front of their house, "How many fields can you walk on?" How much grain can be harvested from such a small field? ”。 The implication is, why bother to spoil the relationship between neighbors for the sake of such a trivial harvest? Don't uncles understand this kind of truth? That's why I conclude that my uncle is bewitched by the villain.

"In order to walk, I actually need to exchange Tian with "my brother"! Will anyone believe this? I don't have such brothers! From these words, it is not difficult to see the deep hatred and endless sadness in my father's heart. Since then, the brothers of a sibling have really turned against each other.
