+He is Zhang Gouzi from the Zhang Family Village.
Lianlian's full name is Zhang Lianlian.
Her opportunistic father had a nickname in the village, Zhang the Cripple.
When Zhang the Cripple was young, he rolled down a hill and broke his leg. Country folks couldn't afford medical treatment, so he let it be, and since then, his leg became crippled.
His left leg grew normally, but his right leg grew very slowly, so by the time he was an adult, they were uneven, very noticeable.
This affected his ability to work.
In the countryside, people valued labor when choosing spouses. Zhang the Cripple's family had four sons, and his brothers' wives were formidable; his parents passed away early. It was good for him to get a meal; there was no money to marry and have children!
Anyway, the Zhang family's line would not be cut off.
