Everyone said we need Xbox gold, but my friend and I apparently do not. Why is that so? All I need is them to be my Xbox friend and invite them over to my Minecraft world, and we can play together and everything's perfectly fine.

Currently, there is an All Access Event going on right now for Minecraft on Xbox. From May 19th-21st 2017, all players can play Minecraft online regardless of their subscription.
We’re launching a Multiplayer All-Access event with a free unlock of Minecraft: Xbox One Edition. Xbox is inviting all Xbox Live members, with or without a Gold membership, to play online with friends for free in any game they own during our Multiplayer All-Access event from May 18-21 on Xbox One and Xbox 360.
However, after this event you will still need gold. See Does Minecraft for Xbox require a gold account to play with other players?
