Allow me to expand on Jan's answer and offer some other observations.
The way I see it, you want task B to start 21 days after the start of Task
A. Let me know if I am wrong. Task B cannot finish until task A finishes.
Now look at your durations. 21 day lag + 66 days of duration for Task B has
to be at least as much duration as Task A but it is not. A duration is 96,
the total on B is 21+66 which is 87 using my math. So that will not work on
the face of it.
Let's try Jan's approach. Add a milestone betwen A & B and call it anything
you like, I will call it C. So the task order is ACB. Link as follows:
Predecessor for C is A SS + 21days.
Now make Task B a hammock task with a start date the same as C start and a
finish date the same as A finsih.

As a note, I challenge your logic that a task cannot start for 21 days after
the start of another. As Jan said, you are missing details. Something
happens during that 21 days that will tirgger B to start. Even if it is "Let
speciman grow in test tube for 21 days." Even so, those are elapsed days not
business days.
