D simply talks about the fact that the son and daughter-in-law were waiting in the anteroom.
So far, this fits with what we think Sandeep will criticize.
Sandeep's commentary on this event is that the adults, by fussing and fussing, turned a very small thing into something important and fancy. C) talks about the old lady's reaction to the gift. I'll only focus on C) and D), since that was what you mentioned having issues with. Now that we know what Sandeep criticizes, we can turn to the answer choices. Sandeep doesn't like the fact that adults make everything formal and traditional and overly dramatic. In the passage, Sandeep says that "grown-ups were mad" (meaning that they did something he didn't take to) and that they turned simple situations into complex, dramatic ones. On the SAT, the secret to these questions is that the passage has to discuss one of those events and his reaction for the test to be completely objective. Question A asks how one person would feel about something else. Good luck, and remember that Khan Academy SAT questions are not quite the same as real College Board SAT questions. Or maybe you just don't want to be forced to create a Khan Academy / College Board account in order to access the Khan SAT practice questions! This is quite the treasure-trove, super-helpful for text searches, and useful for those who might be lacking in internet access for a while, not have access to a computer, or be unable to use the online version of Khan Academy for some reason.
