how far was the town from Valli's Village
Answers
Answer:
The town was six miles from her village. The fare was thirty paise one way — “which is almost nothing at all,” she heard one well-dressed man say, but to Valli, who scarcely saw that much money from one month to the next, it seemed a fortune. The trip to the town took forty-five minutes.

Valli selected the afternoon time for journey for various reasons. Firstly, it was the time her mother took the afternoon nap; she could quietly take the bus ride without any interference and objection from her. Secondly, the crowd on the bus at this time was very less. She could begin her journey at 1 p.m. and return home by 2:45 p.m.
