Are you asking about the gathering for Miss. Havisham's birthday? Is so, Pip is seen as someone unworthy of Miss. Havisham's help and good graces, this is the same way in which Matthew Pocket is seen. The relatives don't understand why she still speaks of having Matthew visit and that she still misses him. On another note, they know he'll inherit........ financially, they think the same of Pip.
