The course of the Loisels’ life changed due to the necklace. Comment.

Answer

The course of the loisel’s life changed due to the necklace. After replacing the missing necklace with a new one, they had to return all the money which they had borrowed from all the lenders to buy the new necklace. He had borrowed eighteen thousand francs. They had sent away the maid and changed their lodge and rented some rooms in an attic. Matilda learnt the extremely unpleasent work of a kitchen. She washed the dishes soiled linen, their clothes and dishcloths. She took down the refuse to the street each morning and brought up the water, stopping at each landing to catch her breath. Dressed like women of people she went to the grocer’s, the butcher’s and the fruiter’s with her basked on her arm, shopping, bargaining to save the money. Loisel worked in the evenings by putting the books of some merchants in order and at night he did copying at five sous a page.
