Looking for books similar to The Daily Life of the Principal Wife. I want a heroine who's not lovesick, focuses on managing the household and outmaneuvering her rivals, doesn't rely on men, doesn't let herself be wronged, and isn't a pushover. Both the heroine and the villains should think things through carefully, and the villains shouldn't suddenly become stupid just to help the plot.
