Ending a pregnancy was no simple matter.
One wrong move, and her life could be in danger.
Mei Wanying had been through enough recently, and her health was already fragile.
At a time like this, neither ending the pregnancy nor carrying it to term would be easy for her.
The doctor advised, "This is not a good time to end the pregnancy. There's a risk of severe bleeding. Even if it is successful, it will affect your future fertility. You may never be able to conceive again. You and Madam should reconsider."
By the time she recovered her strength, the fetus would be larger, which would also make it unsuitable for termination.
But if they didn't end the pregnancy soon and word got out, the young lady's reputation would be utterly ruined.
Gossip could be deadly!
The doctor was one of the Mei family's Household Doctors and knew to keep his masters' secrets.
In the inner courtyards of noble houses, such things were not unheard of.
