תניא אמר רבי חנינא בן עקביא לא כך השיבן רבן גמליאל לחכמים אלא כך השיבן לא אם אמרתם בנשואה שכן בעלה זכאי במציאתה ובמעשה ידיה ובהפרת נדריה תאמרו בארוסה שאין בעלה זכאי לא במציאתה ולא במעשה ידיה ולא בהפרת נדריה
This is not how R. Gamaliel responded to the sages, rather this is how he responded: “[There is] no [comparison]; if you say [the ruling] applies to a married woman whose husband is entitled to her finds, to her handiwork and to the annulment of her vows, will you say it also applies to a betrothed woman whose husband is not entitled either to her finds or to her handiwork or to the annulment of her vows?”
Tosefta Ketubot
Said Rabbi Yehudah: They said before Rabban Gamliel: His betrothed is [called] "his wife" and his bride is [called] "his wife"—just as this one's [his bride's] sale [of her property] is void [without his permission], so to this one's [his betrothed's] sale is void. He said to them: With new property [that which came to her since she was married to him] we are ashamed [that he has control over it], but you would roll over us old property [that which came to her before she was married to him]!? Said Rabbi Hananya ben Akavya: This is not how Rabban Gamliel replied to them. Rather, he said thus to them: No! [Maybe] you can say [this] about a married woman, for whom he has the legal right to her found objects, her handiwork and to annul her vows, but can you say this about a betrothed woman for whom he had no legal rights to her found objects, her handiwork nor to annul her vows!?
