Commentary for Ketubot 121:8

א"ר חנא ואיתימא ר' שמואל בר נחמני לא הכניסה לו ממש אלא כיון שראויה להכניס אע"פ שלא הכניסה תנא אחד שהכניסה לו ואחד שצמצמה לו משלה:

Hana, or some say R. Shmuel b. Nahmani, stated: [She brought] does not mean that she had actually brought. Rather, even if she is in a position to bring, even though she has not brought any. A Tanna taught: [A wife is entitled to the same privileges] whether she brought [a slave] to him or whether she saved up for one out of her income.
