When a nobleman was away, his wife ruled the manor. This meant that the noblewoman, if called upon by her lord, could send knights into battle, just as a man would.

Answer:

Oversaw vassals and Defended the estate

Explanation:

The “lady of the manor” took over the duties of her father/husband while he was away fighting. She supervised vassals, managed the household, and tended to the necessary agricultural and medical tasks. Sometimes she may have had to go to war to defend her estate.
