汪曾祺先生写《故乡的食物》,说一到下雪天,他们家就喝鹹菜汤。他说:“一早起来,看见飘雪花了,我就知道:今天中午是鹹菜汤!”他还说,腌了四五天的新鹹菜很好吃,不鹹,细、嫩、脆、甜,难可比拟。他们家的鹹菜是青菜腌的。我小时候家中后院缸里腌的是芥菜,腌了四五天也最好吃,半青不黄,苦苦的。人老了爱怀旧,记忆总是美化了童年,美化了故乡,连听到张艾嘉唱《童年》也想哭。钢琴家荷洛维兹晚年到莫斯科演奏,一段舒曼的《童年即景》,台下不少人热泪盈眶。文学跟音乐、艺术一样,是创造“从前”的“骗局”:不加渲染的往事是账簿;上了颜色的历史是文学。蓄意打碎人家这段美梦,不啻焚琴煮鹤。Robertson Davies有这个倾向。他说,人人一上了年纪都错以为母亲弄的食物最好吃,真希望有一天会碰到一个大彻大悟的人,承认母亲是厨房的刺客,差一点毒死了他。(“It is odd how all men develop the notion, as they grow older,that their mothers were wonderful cooks. I have yet to meet a man who will admit that his mother was a kitchen assassin and nearly poisoned him.”)
