I attached schema. In servers have 2 ethernet. I added local bridge each side. I can ping between PC and Client PC's but I cannot ping VPN SERVERs.

This is normal behavior. You can access hosts on the other side of the bridge from VPN, but not the one the bridge is on.
This is a Linux limitation.
If you need access to the server from VPN, bridge a TAP adapter instead of a physical one.

I want to change my question. As you can see attached new schema. All laptops connected different wifi-s. Also servers are in different networks. When i connect test_vpn network. I can send print request Printer_1 and Printer_2 and I can get print but I cannot ping cascaded VPN SERVER PC which is left side. I need to reach VPN SERVER in left side.

I have already responded.
If the server is Linux, you can't ping the server from a vpn client unless you bridge a TAP adapter.
If the server is Windows, you should be able to ping the server.
