The first two sentences use "thread" and "clothing", two very common things, to closely connect "loving mother" and "wandering son", describing the flesh-and-blood feelings of mother and child relying on each other. The third and fourth sentences deepen this kind of flesh-and-blood affection through the actions and psychological portrayal of the loving mother making clothes for the wanderer to go out.
The mother went through thousands of stitches and stitches "closely" because she was afraid that her son would not come home "lately". Great maternal love is revealed naturally through the details in daily life. The first four sentences are drawn in line without any modification, but the image of the loving mother is truly touching.
