Should I be consuming MORE calories on days which I am MORE active?

Apologies, I am NEW.

So, normally on a weekly basis, i eat 2,100 - 2,200 calories daily.
Goal: Muscle building.
Current Weight: 125pounds
Height: 5ft 6.

General weekly routine consists of:
3 days a week weight training, around that I am mainly resting, some housework or A walk to the shops, etc.
1-2 days a week resting, at home all day, again some housework.

Main question:
Then I am spending 2-3 days HIGHLY active, on my feet all day 7-9 hours on my feet nonstop. Sometimes more.
- Should I be consuming MORE than my usual caloric intake on those days where I am more active? My guess is yes, as my body requires more fuel for the energy expenditure especially since my goal is to GAIN muscle. BUT I just need reassurance. If so, how many more calories would you suggest I bump up to on such days???

Thank you for all your answers to anybody who does, I appreciate it SO much.
