Going by the tone of the chapter I'd assume she's dead at this point. And don't underestimate the cruelness of society. There are indeed families out there that will be scornful towards their own for whatever reason - maybe a familial dispute, maybe prejudice, maybe just general snobbishness. It's likely he's only invited to the gatherings as a formality, but none of them care if he shows up or not. Going by this chapter his family have that attitude of "poor people are so lazy, why don't they just get more money?".
