Adventure story pattern

Hari caught the attention of the Seabird watchman, Hira Lal, and Hira Lal brought him to Jagu who helps take care of Hari and offers him a job. Later Hari also meets Mr. Panwallah who offers him a job as a watch mender and that allowed him to earn some more money.

Comes home ...
Hari arrives home with his earnings and his family is finally able to afford the necessities such a large family needs.

Is The village by the Sea very much like an adventure story?
Well in my opinion I think the Village by the Sea is very much not like an adventure story as the time Hari's adventure (as can be seen above) took place Lila herself was also having an adventure which was unheard of in an adventure story with two adventures taking place. Even so Lila's adventure was not even an adventure, for example when she was finding the medicine man. Yes, she meets a problem which was that her mother's illness was getting worse and Lila finds a solution which was to find Hira Bai whom had some medical herbs with her and ask for her help, the obstacle was that she had run out, the person they met that "helped" them was the medicine man Hira Bai had asked them to see. But in the end the medicine man never did help them and Lila's mother was still ill. This proves that Lila did not even have an adventure back in Bombay and thus shown that the Village by the Sea is not an adventure story as only Hari was having an adventure and the other main characters were not. But at least the last part of the book was like an adventure story where there was evidence that there would be a part two where the factory would be built and Hari had to find other ways to sustain his family.
