counting records in collection

consider below line of codes and it's result:

$user=\auth::user();

$user->vocabulary()->save($cloudy);

$user->vocabulary() ->count(); \ result is 41

$user ->vocabulary ->count(); \ result is 40

true result is 41 , why results is different?

For the first one you are querying the relationship which actually checks the database. For the second one you already loaded data from the DB before adding a new record. Alas, the data is stale and so need to be refreshed.

$user = $user->refresh();
