There was a lot of variation in how rich medieval women treated others.
One example was Queen Matilda of England. Her father, King Henry I, had got agreement from the members of the nobility that she would be his heir and rule after he died. Nevertheless, when the time came, her cousin, Stephen of Blois, claimed the throne. She went to England, and a lot of people supported her, including the people of London. She treated them so badly, however, that they threw their support to Stephen. During the war, Stephen's only son died, and the war ended when Stephen and Matilda agreed that Matilda's son, Henry, should be Stephen's heir. Nevertheless, the common people of England never had a good opinion of Matilda.
At the other end of the spectrum, we can see the example of St. Margaret, Queen of Scotland, who was the wife of King Malcolm III. It is reported that she always attended the poor and ill, giving them food, before she would eat.

Yes, the story of the rich man and Lazarus is considered a parable in the Bible. It is found in the Gospel of Luke and teaches a moral lesson about the consequences of how we treat others in this life.
