Solution

The correct option is C My brother asked me when I would take him to the Big Mall.
Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words.
The given example is an example of Interrogative Questions. Indirect speech is formed by using 'ask' + question word + clause.
The clause will have the question, in normal word order and with the necessary tense change. The simple future tense will remain the same. 'Will/shall' changes to would.
Thus, option B is the correct answer according to the rules.
