Metals are good conductors of electric current as they have free electrons. So metals have been used as connecting wires to connect the cells and bulbs.

Which circuit would have the brightest light?

If you connect bulbs in parallel across a given voltage supply (eg household mains supply) then they will all draw their rated current and will glow at their rated brightness. If you connect the same bulbs in series then they will glow very much less brightly. This is because the resistance of a bulb's element is also related to the power dissipated in the element. A bulb's element is rated for operation at a particular voltage. You can certainly connect two 6v motorcycle bulbs in series, and connect them to a car battery at 12v, and the two bulbs will be just as bright as they were when individually operated from the motorcycle 6v batttery. However if you connect two 6v bulbs in parallel and then wire them to a 12v car battery they will only glow brighter for a fraction of a second and then ... pop. You will have overheated the elements beyond their designed power handling capability.

How to install the 4 incandescent lamp then the 2 bulb connected in series but the other 2 bulb connected in parallel?

Your description is very strange. I can't imagine an application where two bulbs are in series and two in parallel. However let's assume that each bulb has one white wire and one black wire. Take the two parallel bulbs and connect then across the supply by tying all blacks and all whites together with black and white from supply. Then for the two series bulbs connect black from one to white from other. Then take the remaining black and white wires and connect to the black and white wires for parallel bulbs respectively.
