מתיב רב יוסף מעשה ידיה ומציאתה אע"פ שלא גבתה מת האב הרי הן של אחין טעמא דבחיי האב הא לאחר מיתת האב לעצמה מאי לאו בניזונת לא בשאינה ניזונת

Joseph objected: Her handiwork and anything she finds, even if she has not collected [the proceeds], if her father dies, belong to her brothers. The reason then is that [they originated during] the lifetime of their father, but [if they originated] after his death [they would belong] to her. Does not [this refer to a daughter] who is maintained? No; [this refers to a case] where she is not being maintained.
