Assuming you are using the Queen's Indian correctly and not as a "catch-all" defense, which if you are, you completely don't understand the Queen's Indian at all as you are allowing what it's designed to prevent, the idea behind the Queen's Indian is to control e4.
After 1.d4 Nf6 (stopping 2.e4) 2.c4 e6 3.Nf3, the move 3.Nf3 does NOTHING to contribute to the fight for e4, so Black has at least 2 moves before he has to worry about e4 coming. Therefore, he has time to play 3...b6 and 4...Bb7.
However, if White plays 3.Nc3, threatening 4.e4, then only a chess dunce would play 3...b6 because it does nothing to contribute to your initial idea when you played 1...Nf6 and 2...e6, and that was to prevent e4.
Therefore, after 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3, Black needs to play 3...d5 (stopping 4.e4), 3...Bb4 (also stopping 4.e4 via the pin), or 3...c5 (directly transposing to the Benoni, which is highly theoretical).
If you are playing 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 b6, give it up now as you clearly don't understand its purpose.
I play the queens Indian defence and would like to know what the plans in the middle game will be.
