"Mother's uncle is big", and banquets are held in rural areas. Why is uncle's position greater than uncle's?

I think it's probably because of the special relationship between uncle and mother. My uncle is the name of my mother's brother's nephew or niece. Almost all my friends in the countryside know that there is such a phenomenon in the countryside now, that is, my uncle's status is very high. My uncle plays a great role in banquets or other large-scale activities, or my uncle has a high status.

We have many relatives, uncles, grandparents, grandparents and so on, but among these relatives, my uncle is a special existence, because my mother is my uncle's relative, more accurately, my immediate male relative. For my mother, besides her father, my uncle is the strongest backing of my family.

Because men used to have a high status, having a powerful uncle and mother in her husband's house would be very reassuring, and even some funny sayings appeared. A woman who marries her husband's family will not be bullied there as long as she has many brothers, and even her position in her husband's family is quite high, because her husband's family is so powerful that if her mother goes back to her family, her father will not be taunted.

So even now, in many rural areas of our country, my uncle will attend important occasions such as children's full moon, girls' marriage and children's twelve years old. Not only that, there will be my uncle's seat at the party. That's what my mother's uncle said. In addition, there are many old sayings about uncles from ancient times to the present, which also shows the high status of uncles in people's hearts. So if you have an uncle's house, you should get on well with your uncle!
