what kind of life dod metilda and her husband live after the loss of the diamond necklace
Answers
Answer:
When Matilda lost the necklace, she was very shocked and didn't have the force to go bed.
After searching for a week, they didn't find it. So they decided to replace it by a real necklace worth 36000 francs.
M. Loisel had 18000 francs, he borrowed the rest, making ruinous promises. After buying the necklace, Mme. Loisel returned the necklace to her friend.
They lived a hard life. They sent away the maid, changed their lodgings, rented some rooms in an attic. Mme. Loisel learnt the household works. She travelled to the butcher's, the grocer's and the fruiter's, with her basket hanging in one hand, spending the last sou of her money.
Her husband worked evenings and nights, putting merchant's books in order. He often did copying at 5 sous a page. And this life lasted for 10 years.
After 10 years, they had restored all.
