Indirect speech: You asked her why she cried like that.

Indirect speech: I told her to go home and bring my books.

Indirect speech: Our teacher said that honesty is the best policy.

v. The mother said to her son, "May you prosper in life"

Indirect speech: The mother said to her son that he will prosper in life.
