Answer : 4. "left no stones unturned"
Explanation :

In this context, the speaker is trying to convince their mother to give consent for the excursion to the Himalayas. "Left no stones unturned" means to make every possible effort or to try everything available to achieve a goal, which aligns with the speaker's attempt to persuade their mother.
