English Question on The beggar

Is Lushkoff a willing worker? Why, then, does he agree to chop wood for Sergei?

Answer

Lushkoff is weak out of malnourishment and alcoholism. He knows he is not strong enough to work. But once Sergei detects his lies then he is feeling ashamed. His conscience pushes him to agree for chopping wood.
