Must a wife accept the processed fruit when offered back by the husband along with the containers used for preservation?

Primary text

One opinion holds that the wife must accept the offering because the containers are considered accessory to and following the property itself. Another view suggests she is not obligated to accept them because the containers are distinct assets belonging to the husband, and she is not required to accept them, similar to containers that were entirely separate from the fruit.
