Question

What did poor Mr. Loisel suggest as alternatives to her desire for party dress and jewels?


Class 10

Answer 1

Answer:

Mr Loisel had to sacrifice his 400 francs for the dress which he had saved to buy a gun for hunting. The day of the ball came near, but Matilda put forward another demand and wanted to wear a necklace at the ball. Mr Loisel suggested that she could borrow jewels from her rich friend, Madame Forestier.
