Does xiao-yu have any (known) half-siblings from his bio dad running around?

No. His biological father is fairly young (only about six years older than Lan Sizhui) and he got more out of messing with women emotionally, rather than physically. Plus, his parents refused to let him marry after they found out about Xiao-Yu.

#xiao-yu's father is not a jgs type per se #most of his flings were with gentry girls and never got physical #because women in yunmeng and baling usually weren't considered ruined by their families if they'd had premarital sex #they could tell their parents what had happened #and the parents in turn would be able to appeal to baling ouyang for a marriage #however most of the women xiao-yu's dad was involved with got tired of him and dumped him #whether they'd slept with him or not #so he decided to pick out a vulnerable working class girl to soothe his ego #and then he abandoned her when she told him she was pregnant #the thing is that this conduct is considered unacceptable in baling #and he would have been expected to marry yang xin #so his parents told him that if he ever chose to marry #they would inform his intended wife that he had abandoned the mother of his child and forced her to turn to prostitution #no woman would continue an engagement after knowing that so xiao yu's bio dad quit while he was ahead #reference #asks #lan xiaohui
