Yaacov traveled with his family back to Eretz Yisroel where his parents lived.
He worried that his brother Eisav would still be upset with him for taking the brachos Eisav thought were rightfully his. The brachos werent Eisav's since he gave away his right to be the oldest which allowed Yaacov to have the brachos that he got. Yaacov davened to Hashem to protect him and his family. He also prepared presents to give to Eisav.
While on the way, Yaacov remebered he left some pitchers across the river they just passed. He went back to retrieve them when Eisavs angel came and wrestled Yaacov. He wanted to show Yaacov he did the wrong thing by taking the brachos. In the end, the angel admitted that Yaacov was right for taking the brachos. :)
