Indirect speech - Mother told me to tidy my room and then help her in the kitchen.

Explanation- 

  • "Said to" changes to "told" (because it's a command).
  • The imperative verbs "Tidy" and "help" are changed into the infinitive form: to tidy, to help.
  • "Me" becomes "her" (as the speaker is the mother).
  • The conjunction "and then" is kept the same, as it maintains the sequence of actions.
