Solution
The correct answer is C. "The tailor asked him if he would have the suit ready by the next evening." This is because when reporting questions in English, we usually change the verb tense back one step if the statement is no longer true or relevant, or if the reported speech is not a recent conversation. Also, the use of "if" is appropriate here as it introduces an indirect question.
