Thanks dear hoseinist for your good reading.
I prefer not to answer the questions because some friends like afsane had answered the question correctly and completely.
but the meaning of the last sentence is: I'm unhappy because I'm not the relatives of that died woman. because if i was one of her relatives I'd become richer.
I'm not sure let dear sepideh to explain that

[hoseinist]

thx guys,
your answers were very good,honestly i didn't have the answers of the questions like you . (my book don't have any answers !)
but i think the poorly dressed man liked to be one of Mrs Block's relative
he was crying for himself, because he wasn't!so he wasn't crying for Mrs Block's dead!
