Answer:
You did not include the answer choices, but the correct answer on USATP is C) She deeply loves and wants to see her son as often as possible.
Explanation: The fact that the narrator's mother would walk twelve miles both to see her son and back to her own plantation after a full day's work in the field (under the threat of a whipping if she didn't show up on the field the next morning) shows that she deeply loves and wants to see her son as often as possible. Only a mother filled with love would take such great efforts to see her son.
Trust me, this is right. I hope I helped somebody!
