i don't think rachila is realy 'sheepish'. but living in a society noble-focus the people attain some influence trough money are dismiss like second-rate citizen. probably mherin come from a noble house, and don't think rachila in the term of 'peer' but someone living way over her head. I cede the point to your superior quoting skills, haha. Apparently I was slightly mis-remembering exactly how that dialog played out. Yeah, there definitely seems to be a bit of merchant family vs noble house tension going on there, so I guess rich does fit better than I initially thought.
