I'm just going to assume he was there discussing the courting of Ashigara, and in an attempt to not be awkward will instead invite trauma onto himself. Because that's more fun than him fooling around with the sister.

Reasonably sure he can get away with telling her that he was asking for advice on how best to ask her on a date.
Then he apologizes that he had to tell her this way instead of surprising her with the proposition.
The common Ashigara rendition would squeal and probably drag him off to night battle right away... and I don't mean the "you lie there and die nicely while I pummel your face in" night battle either.
...Then they have to visit Akashi to repair a penile fracture.
