As I say it can be Japanese copies after "popular" Chinese paintings. I would in any case date them to the late 18th or more probable 19th cent..
This type of painting used to be worth fairly small money, but due to the seismic shifts, in recent years, in the Chinese art and antique market, I think you should post them on the Asian art forum and you might get more information to pursue.
Maybe you can report back your findings on this forum?
I'm sort of a specialist on fine Chinese and Korean paintings but the popular narrative sort of Chinese paintings is certainly a bit outside my area of expertise.
