Historical-Era Stories with a Female Lead Who Stands on Her Own: No More Male Leads Who Keep Going to the Countryside to Help the Poor

I can accept romance developing later, but can there be a personal space and supplies, with the female lead thriving on her own? Also, please no stories where she is constantly sent to the countryside 🤣 to help impoverished male leads, only to end up becoming part of the male lead's family. The romance should not progress so quickly either. Would an educated youth from that era really be interested in a villager?
