Detailed explanation-1: -Loisel saved four hundred francs to buy a gun. But he want to give that four hundred francs to his wife because Madame Loisel wanted this four hundred francs to buy a dress for the party.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mme Loisel wanted four hundred Francs to buy a new dress. Mr. Loisel had saved the exact money to buy a gun to join hunting parties but he sacrificed his desire for the happiness of his wife. He gave her the money to buy a dress and further suggested her to borrow some jewellery from her friend, Mme Forestier.
Detailed explanation-3: -Loisel feels awful, and asks his wife, Mathilde, how much a simple, pretty dress for the ball would cost. Mathilde stops to think it over – how much can she ask for before her husband flips out – and at last tells him four hundred francs would probably do it. M Loisel agrees to give Mathilde four hundred francs.
Detailed explanation-4: -What and why did Matilda (Mrs. Loisel) put up another demand after her husband gave her 400 francs for buying a pretty dress?
