>  I found some old bridge from  another piano, and put it back to my piano. 

You will need to make a new bridge to fit the strings and their
lengths.  This is not as difficult as you might think.  You will need
to duplicate the pattern of the old bridge for string length, the
curve of the original and the height will need to be made to provide
positive down bearing.  Gluing the bridge to a bare wood location with
screws will help the tone.
