Answer 1

You can create a scope in your model and apply it in builder

Define these functions in your model

protected function columns(){
    return Schema::getColumnListing('clients');
}

public function scopeExclude($query, $value = array()) 
{
  return $query->select( array_diff( $this->columns(), $value) );
}

Now use it in query builder

App\User::with(['client' => function($query){
    $query->exclude(['phone_no']);
}])->find(2)
