Period Novels Worth Rereading Again and Again

Looking for books like *Help! Twins, a Special Constitution, and the Big Shot's Unceasing Affection!* I want a simple, peaceful life, without melodramatic family drama.

Period Stories with a Selfish, Pleasure-Loving Hoarder Who Has a Pocket Dimension

I don't like stories about raising kids. A CP is fine, but no CP is even better. I like a protagonist who quietly uses her own golden finger, without getting involved with other people. She should be ruthless, killing off every rotten person and leaving them on the mountain for the wolves.
